Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2007 1:40 am Post subject: difference between ILE and ILR??
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ILR (indefinite leave to remain) may be granted from within the UK by the BIA.
ILE (indefinite leave to enter) may be granted from outside the UK by British posts or (previously) by immigration officers at UK ports of entry.
In practice, there is no difference between an ILR and ILE, apart from who granted it. Once in the UK, an ILE acts as an ILR. When outside the UK, an ILR acts as an ILE, subject to the Returning Residents provisions.
