Partner(FLR M) to Set(M) application timing

[AdmiralAngelo]

Hello,

Just looking for some advise.

I initially came over on a Tier 5 Youth Mobility Visa in 2019.

On the 26th May 2021 my Partner visa was accepted, i got Partner(FLR M) on 13th December 2023 and that is due to expire on 5th May 2026.

Which means on 26th May 2026 i would have been on a partner visa continuously for 5 years.

But i am a bit confused as my current visa is due to expire before my full 5 years.

My question is, will i be able to use the 28 day rule and apply that to the full 5 year date of 26th May 2026 and apply for ILR between 28th April 2026(28 days before full 5 years 26th May 2026) to 5th May 2026(My visa expiry).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Josh
