Main applicant is on Health and care worker visa job code 2231.

What answer do you want to receive?

If dependent is eligible for ILR (spent 5 years on dependent visa), they can apply for ILR. If they can't they need to wait until they can. If their visa expires before they can, they have to get a 3 year extension (or two of them, if needed) for their visa.

Main applicant will be eligible for ILR in next month and dependent need 4 more year to become eligible.

So will dependent be able to extend there visa 4 year and get ILR eligibility after main applicant is on ILR

Yes. They would have to apply for a three year extension twice then.
