30. We will grant leave in line with the expiry date of the PBS migrant’s (or main applicant’s) leave,
except where the PBS migrant has been granted indefinite leave to remain. In these cases, we
will grant you a period of three years leave. An application for further leave may then be made if
required to take you up to the applicable qualifying period for indefinite leave to remain.
‘Switching’ or moving into the route for Family Members of Tier 1, 2 or 5
migrants
31. If you are the family member of a Tier 1, 2, or 5 migrant, switching is permitted when applying
as:
•
a family member who has or last had entry clearance or leave to remain as the partner
or child of a person who had leave under another category and who has since been granted, or is,
at the same time, being granted leave to remain as a relevant Points Based System migrant; or
•
a child born in the UK to a PBS migrant and their dependant partner
我的理解只有符合条件31,才能Switch到Depedent签证,也就上面人的说法,但我看到论坛有人,主申请人与Depedent同时在英国内申请,
一个是从Tier 4 到 Tier 2 一个从PSW到Tier 2 Depedent 成功了。
