FLR visa extension
hello all.
my wife may or may not pass her life in UK test before her current flr spouse visa runs out.
i know that she will need to apply for an extension and to state the reasons why she needs it.
two questions if any one knows the answers.
if she gets an extension is it for a full two years again?
if for example she passed the UK test shortly after getting an extension can she apply straight away for ILR or will she need to wait again for two years.
when ever i email the immigration people i always get half the question answered, so i thought i would try the mine of information on here .
regards
john

and yes, once your wife passes she can apply for ilr.

Arrived 2005 so you were supposed to apply ILR 2007 and we are now year 2009..you left it too long
You can apply for your ILR after you've completed your 24 months of stay (start date since you arrived in UK with your spouse visa).
Even though Im very confident to answer your query, Its also a good idea to ask advice from Home Office.Not an expert, I only try to help.
