Visa History for Myself

01. 01.01.2007 - 30.06.2010 - Student visa - applied from Sri Lanka
02. 07.07.2010 - 07.07.2012 - Post Study Work visa – Tier 1 - applied from UK
03. 10.08.2012 - 22.07.2015 - Tier 2 (General) – applied from UK
04. 31.07.2015 - 05.08.2018 - Tier 2 (General) – applied from UK
05. 18.07.2017 - 31.12.2024 - Settlement based on 10 years long residence - applied from UK in one day service.

Hopefully, I will become a British Citizen by 18.07.2018


Could you please kindly advise me the quickest option for my wife to obtain her settlement. Although she lives here for more than 10 years, I believe there is a gap between 13.04.2011 - 10.01.2012 which breaks her continuous stay for 10 years. I may be wrong in this case.

Her current visa as PBS dependent valid until 05.08.2018 and please guide me towards the right direction.

Many thanks in advance.
