When you first granted leave under the spouse visa category (5 year route) you will be granted a period of two and a half years (plus an additional three months if applying for Entry Clearance). You will then have to make an extension application before the expiry of this leave and will be granted a further two and a half years. You may then qualify for indefinite leave to remain in the UK which can be followed by an application to naturalize as a British Citizen, provided you meet all requirements.

These children can also apply as dependants. This will however modify minimum requirements.

If your application is refused you should have a right of appeal. This is because a spouse application is automatically deemed a human rights claim. The appeal will be heard at the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) in the UK. If you are in the UK, you and your spouse will be able to attend and give evidence before the Judge. If you are outside of the UK, your sponsor spouse will be able to attend, but you can write a statement and provide evidence for the Tribunal to consider. Again, we recommend seeking legal advice and representation from our specialist immigration appeal lawyers before appealing against a decision to refuse a spouse visa application.

ILR in the UK is subject to the 180-days rule. This is used to calculate the amount of qualifying absence for your ILR eligibility.

Although Indefinite Leave to Remain allows you to reside in the UK free from immigration restrictions, it is not the same as citizenship. ILR is a mandatory prerequisite to settle and get your British Passport. Most importantly, you can lose your ILR if you spend more than 2 years away from the country. On the contrary, UK citizens are free to travel and spend as much time as they like abroad. ILR status allows an unlimited stay in the UK, with access to NHS services, whereas British citizenship includes all this but introduces many more benefits that a British citizen would have.

Children born in the UK where parents hold indefinite leave to remain can apply to be British straight away.
