1. What do mean "economical option"? They cost the same. Long residence you can apply on person, tier 1 ent you can't.

2. She will have to switch to FLR(M) which will reset her 5 year residence clock to zero, 2 x 2.5 year visas, before she can apply for ILR based O. 5 years.

3. If you apply for ILR based on tier 1 ent, she can apply for ILR in July 2019.

4. Extend it as PBS dependent.

Hi CROO1
my second post been locked but one of my query was neither asked nor replied here, therefore if you don't mind please answer this question:

When I go for ILR on 10 years route , would it affect my baby and wife visa as well. Can they stay on PBS dependent till end of their visa?


Many Thanks

No they cannot if you apply for ILR based on long residence. They must switch to flr m before their current visas expire and meet the requirements for flr m, inlcuimsing English and income. Their clock towards ILR based on 5 years residence will reset to zero. This was already answered.

This applies to spouse and non UK born dependents.
