我于2014年8月持T2 partner签证来到英国,本月我先生刚刚拿到十年LONG RESIDENCE永居,他的T2 签证将于2015年4月30日到期。这样的情况下,我是否可以直接申请 a ‘family of a settled person’ visa?因为在UKBA官方解释中看到一段说明: If your partner was in the UK on a temporary visa before settling or becoming a British citizen, you may have to apply as a ‘dependant’ (partner) in their original visa category. 这段说明让我倍感困惑,还请各路高手指点明路哇!!!
