Naturalisation and dependent visa extension

Post by ILRasi » Tue Jan 17, 2017 9:06 am

Hi


I have applied for naturalisation . I will have to apply for my family tier1 dependent extension next month as they have completed 4 years abd 1 year still required to qualify for ILR.If I receive the naturalisation before I apply dependent extension for my family do they still fall under tier1 general dependent category ?

Please let me know. Thanks

They can still apply as Tier 1 G dependents regardless of your change from ILR to BC, assuming you got ILR based on 5 years residence.

No. They need to complete 5 years of residence.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

The extension will likely be for 3 years. You will also have to pay the immigration health surcharge for each dependent.
