My wife entered UK as my Tier 2 General dependent in may 2015 when she was granted a 3 yr dependant Visa. I have obtained ILR in Sep 2016 through 5 yr tier 2 route.
What visa should my wife apply for her dependant visa extension? Tier 2 dependent.
Should she apply for (flr m) No, this will reset her clock to zero and a new 5 year residence period (2 x 2.5 year visas)
But in the application it is mentioned as "You will only be considered for leave as a Tier 1 or 5 Dependant. You will not
be considered for any other type of leave to remain. You must use a different
form if you want to stay for another reason."? now and then apply for ILR when she completes her 5 years? Or should she apply for Pbs dependent extension if so can you point me to the application please. Just to clarify that I am on ILR through 5 yr route now. See link below.
Will applying for flr m reset the count and her stay would be counted from flr m visa start for next 5 yrs ? Reset and the time already spent will be lost.
Can you also suggest me the documents required? I have opened a limited company now and no longer on Tier 2 company so I was wondering if I need to show any financial statements the proves that I can support her/ Not for PBS dependent no. You will need to show maintenance though.
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks in advance..

One is apply for the extension of pbs dependent visa. no financial requirement. send your ilr copy, she gets extension of fixed 3 years. Once she has spent a total of 5 years ON pbs dependent, she can apply ilr.
second option is, you apply for her flrm. her counter for 5 years will reset and financial requirement needs to be satisfied. she will get 2.5 years visa, which needs to be extended again (for another 2.5 year), after which she can apply for ilr
Please refrain from tagging onto other members topics, it is considered rude and creates confusion when more questions are asked. Please ask these questions in your own topic/thread.DEEPAM wrote:Hi
I will be in similar situation to Movva. I am going to apply for my ILR on May 20 on tier 2 general route 5 years (2012 - 2017). My husband came to uk as tier 2 dependent in June 2015 and his visa expires in June 2018. So in total by the time of visa expiry he will be on 3 years as tier 2 dependent. Can he still extend his visa as pbs dependent ( Tier 2 dependent visa ?) for 2 more years so that he will be elgible for ILR in 2019 ?
Thanks
