ILR Visa Query

[rockybelbo]

Hi ,

This is Rocky and I will be eligible for my ILR in month time,also I got married recently in December and brought my wife from India through Dependant Visa.
Can you please let me know what visa should I apply to my Wife when I go for ILR visa appointment next month.
Can I apply for my wife visa in the same appointment as mine.

Thanks & Regards,

Rocky.

I believe, your dependent partner will have to continue to apply as a dependent, in the same category as initially granted dependent visa, until they complete their qualifying period (for ILR) in that category (usually 5 years).

See here:

You cannot apply in a partner category if you:

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 you do not qualify for settlement yet.

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