Hi Joe Bloggs! I am a little confused by what you have wrote. My thorough investigation into Home Office and British Embassy website tells me something different (if I have understood them and you correctly). I read somewhere that they do not want you to apply for extension to your visa more than 1 month before expiry date - maybe that is the ILR - I will look again. If you did it says your application would be ignored.
Surely an FLR is the same as a spouse visa? Why would you get a spouse visa and then apply for FLR afterwards if you already have spouse visa? The person was asking about FLR after fiancee visa.

your thinking of ILR - You must not send us your application more than 28 days before the end of your two-year qualifying period. If you do, we may refuse your application with no refund of the fee

you would apply for FLR(m) if you was on a spouse visa, if you was not physically in the UK 2 years (-up to 28 days) before your spouse visa expired, many people would never need to thou, especially now a spouse visa is valid for 27 months, not 24 months.
you would also apply for FLR is you could not pass the life in UK test before your visa expires.
from the FLR (m) guidence form ,,
5 WHEN TO APPLY
You and any children under 18 applying with you should
apply before the end of your/their permitted stay in the UK

once your'e married then you can apply for FLR.
Thanks JB for correcting me. Useful information for those applying for FLR or ILR when not resident in UK.
I was simply trying to answer the person who said they were already in UK with a fiancee visa. The 1st person did mention ILR but I was not answering their question on my 2nd post but the other person. I have to say that threads can become confusing if those who read the thread change the subject of the thread and introduce new questions so that those who reply confuse other readers who they are answering to. It would be good somehow if a new question could be started on new threads every time.
