Tier 1 5 yrs completed + 10 yrs legal stayed in UK

[moh1021]

Hi expert
My ten (10) years legal stay in UK will be completed just 15 days before my five years coplete stay in tier 1 general category. I am thinking to apply in 10 years category but problem is my wife and one kid will be overstayer in this case due to they can't apply with me in this category of application.
(1). My question is can they apply with me for ILR? If it is how they can??

The reply will be highly appreciated.
Reyards,

1. When is your and your dependants' current leave due to expire?
2. Do you meet the requirements for settlement as a Tier 1 (General) migrant?

Since when have your dependants been living with you in the UK?

In such case my suggestion would be that you apply for settlement under PBS route as a Tier 1 (General) migrant rather than under long residence. This way, you'll be able to include your wife in your settlement application as a dependant.

See also FAQs for ILR - WP/Tier 2/HSMP/Tier 1 - Read before posting for more information.

If your child was born in UK, read Q29 - Q32 of the linked topic.

Thanks for you thoughtful suggestions.
