ILR/SET M Visa question

Post by jvincennes » Wed Jul 11, 2012 11:23 am

Hi all,

Hopefully someone can help.

I'm a British citizen and my Australian wife is currently on FLR visa which is due to expire in December. I assumed that she would have to apply for the ILR/SET(M) visa (allowing her to stay for another 5 years) until I heard of visa changes which are due this month.

Now, do I understand correctly that the next visa she can apply for will only permit her to stay for another 2 years? She's already passed the Life in the UK test, by the way.

Many thanks guys!

SET(M) will grant your wife ILR which is permanent residency. The new rules won't affect her.
