Thankyou everybody

we now have to pop to croydon to sort out the spouse visa & ILR , she has been in the uk for 4 years and we have been together for 3 years ( with proof ) , we have been told Chariz can apply for ILR & a spouse visa all at the same time .

so wish us luck.

congrats , has she been here 4yrs on a work permit ? i think its 5 years now before you can apply for ILR using a workpermit

hmm, spouse visa and ILR at same time, not so sure about that, but i could be wrong , i would have thought if you apply for a spouse visa now, then your wife, if shes on a work permit, can go and do what ever jobs she likes when she gets her spouse visa. but means waiting 2 yrs before she can get ILR, and have to pay for the spouse and ILR fees. not sure if 4yrs workpermit and 1yr spouse can be used for ILR. don't remember reading this anywhere.

or if your wife is on a workpermit, and she has done 4yrs, then 1yr form now she could apply for ILR using that, and save a spouse visa fee , but means she still cannot change her job, without a new workpermit, but you dont say if she is on a workpermit , so i might be talking

always phone the lunatics at lunar house a couple of times, as they some times give you different answers, and do some reseatch yourslef
