Dependant of a Person Applying for ILR !!!!!

Post by sharma1987 » Mon Apr 09, 2012 2:17 am

Hi, I am currently on PSW visa which is due to expire in May 2013. I am getting married to my partner in June 2012, who himself is about to apply for his ILR in September 2012. I am not sure of whether my name should be added along in his application as a spouse. I am also not sure that I would qualify for ILR or I would be granted an initial stay of 2 years and then ILR.

Also many friends are suggesting that after marriage I would have to send my passport to my embassy for adding my husband's name on it rather than my father's name otherwise UKBA wouldn't consider our marriage valid. Is it required? And if yes then how long would such a processing take?

What's your partner's immigration category.

Validity of marriage does not depend on adding husband's name to your passport.

Hi

If your prospective partner is on Work Permit (Not Tier 2) then you can get the ILR alongwith him/her. But you need to switch your visa to become his/her dependent befor he/she makes ILR application. Only then you would be able to get ILR alongwith him/her.
