Dependant Visa ( for spouse) under which category?

Post by majhagabru » Mon Mar 11, 2013 11:08 am

Hi, I am applying my ILR in July 2013. I am currently on Tier-1 General Migrant Visa. My marriage will be in August. I want to know under which category my wife will be applying Visa ?
1) partner of Settled person
or
2) partner of Migrant workder ?

UKBA site is little confusing me , when I read a section that follows as :
You cannot apply in a partner category if you:
a) are the spouse or partner of a person who is settled in the UK or has British citizenship if their most recent permission to stay was under tiers 1, 2, or 5 of the points-based system; and
b) you do not qualify for settlement yet.

Instead, you must apply as a dependant under the relevant category of points-based system

Can somebody please throw some light on it ?
