Shortfall of 3 Months

Hi guys,

I'm wondering about my chances for an ILR application based on 10 years of residence.

I'll quickly jot down the facts:
Initial entry visa valid from: 01/09/2004
Initial entry date: 15/09/2004
Current visa (PSW) expiration: 23/06/2014
Days out of the country during the 10 years: 350 with the longest stay being a 120 consecutive days.
I have not overstayed on any of my visas, which, until the current PSW visa have been student visas.

I'm a bit unclear about the 28 day rule so I'm not sure whether to count from the 1st or the 15th.

I've had a look at go2khurram 's thread:
http://www.immigrationboards.com/indefi ... 24909.html
where he was able to secure an ILR, but the facts of our case differ somewhat so I was hoping someone could offer some advice.

I am seeking NQF lv6, tier 2 sponsorship but it seems unlikely at this point.

Thanks in advance.

Do read given below threads; as few made successful early applications for ILR.

Hi tier 4,

I saw your reply in the other thread as well, thanks for the links.

for the benefit of anyone reading this thread:
the facts in the first post are not correct as I realised there was an earlier visa and trip than the one stated above (sept) and therefore the shortfall is of 36 days.
