Hi Everyone,

I have a big confusion, I spent several hours in the forum to get my answer but couldnt, and finally i had to post a new topic.

I am trying to go for 10 years long residency; following are my visa dates

Arrival In UK: april 2006 to july 2009 as student

applied for extension on: 17 july 2009 got visa on 14 december 2009 which expired on 10 december 2010

applied for extension : 17 december 2010 (7 days over stay) got visa which expires 31 march 2011

got psw on 02 march 2011 expires on 3 march 2013

hope that 7 days over stay wouldnt become hurdle[/b]

Q: As i have 3 years approx more for my 10 years to be completed, i have two option either student visa for MSc (i did bsc here) which would be less than three years and again i will have to apply for extension , or should i go for Tier 1 enterpeneur visa (3 years and also HO is taking arround 6 months to process that can help complete my 10 years)

SO WHICH ONE SHOULD I GO FOR ?

I know its a bit long post, but please give your best suggestion,

Thanks alot,
Regards
