Can I apply under a different category if WP ILR fails?

Post by Homzy » Thu Jan 10, 2013 12:58 pm

Hi,

I am about 6 months away from the end of 5 years under a work permit.
I have spent the entire time with the same employer in the same role and they are happy for me to continue to be employed with them.

About 1 month ago I married a UK citizen, we have also been living together for nearly 2 years.

I can apply for ILR under my work permit in June.
Or I can apply now for FLR as a spouse and then wait another 5 years before applying for ILR as a spouse.

What should I do?

If my ILR application under the work permit fails can I then apply for FLR as a spouse?

Or can I apply for FLR now as a spouse and then apply for ILR under the work permit in June if I still meet all the other conditions?

Thanks.
