Please, I have a question concerning the advice I was given yesterday. I am planning to switch to Tier4 dependant from Tier1 Entrepreneur for two years, after which I will complete 10years legally in the UK. But someone told me yesterday that dependant of tier4 is not qualified for 10yrs route ILR even if he stayed 10 years in UK. Simply because is a tier4 dependant at the time of application. Please, can our expert help throw more lights on this?
Thanks
Absolute rubbish. I hope you have not paid for such horribly incorrect advice. ANY applicant for ILR via ANY route CANNOT apply for ILR outside the UK. You can only apply for ILR WITHIN the UK.Ameten wrote:Thanks Vinny,
I think I didn't put the question the way he put it.
What the lawyer actually said is that a tier4 dependant is not allowed to make an in-country SET (LR) application, that the applicant (tier4 dependant) who has lawfully stayed in the UK for 10 years, will have to go back to his or her country to make the SET (LR) application, simply because he/she is a tier4 dependant at the time of application? Please help to confirm if this is true.
1. It seems from what you say continuity was not brokenAmeten wrote: My second question is that I was refused tier1 entreprenuer extention in April 2016, Filed AR in same April (Intime application), AR refusal letter came in July 2016, Filed a fresh application same July (intime Application), got tier1 entreprenuer extention approval in November 2016.
Please, will the period of refusal and reapplication (April - November) count as part of lawful 10 years for Long Resident? Please help.
Thanks in anticipation
Thanks CR001, I have not paid him, as I was not convinced about it as well. It means applying for 10 yrs route ILR within the UK includes tier4 dependant applicant?CR001 wrote:Absolute rubbish.
