Petition Pre July 2012 PBS Dependants
More details
After the drastic changes in immigration rules on 06/04/2014, pre 9th July 2012 PBS dependants won't be able to combine any time spent as PBS dependant with FLR(M) to qualify for ILR and their qualifying time period of 5 years will start from the day they are granted FLR(M) visa, if the main applicant gains indefinite leave to remain based on 10 years of long residence.
There are thousands including me who are being affected adversly with this change in rules because this means that we are no more covered under the transitional arrangements - Part 8.
This e petitions is created to shake the Government, Home Office & UKVI to allow all Pre 9th July 2012 PBS Dependants to combine their time period spend as PBS dependant along with partner of a settled person (FLR M) to qualify to apply for Indefinite Leave To Remain in the UK.
Please everyone who is or their loved ones or friends are affected by these new rules sign the petitions
