Tier1 General Dependent ILR Absences

[Gladiator9185]

Hi...

My wife got Tier 1 dependent Visa in Jan 2013 and entered UK in June 2013 for 2 months and then entered again in UK in Mar 2015 after 18 months of absence. She will complete 5 years from first entry of June 2013 in June 2018 with 18 months of absence. Is she eligible for ILR in June 2018.

Yes for ILR.
For nationality, different absence rules apply, so check them before applying.

PBS dependants have NO absence limit for ILR

Hi...thanks for your reply, is there any reference which shows that there is no absence limit for "PBS dependants for ILR" and when we apply separately for dependent ILR we use same set(O) form, in which there is an option to fill absence just like the main applicant, otherwise when ILR application for dependent is done with main applicant, than there is no option for absences for dependent.

The requirement was removed from the rules

Leave the absences table empty
