Must admit I thought we covered all this before.

It needs a couple of readings but OK this is what I found so far:-

Here are the Immigration Directorate Instructions

And here's a link to the Immigration Rules (paragraphs 297-300)

They do actually say the same.

To me, on a simple basis, it's a decision between Part 1 and Part 2 (don't want to get into the 'Compelling case' just yet)

The circumstances described (one parent settled and one parent limited leave) appear to more closely match Part 2 means Financial Requirement.

As only one of you is settled, you need to cover the application with the FM requirement of £18,600 + additional for 1 child.
