Will 2nd tier1 extension affect ILR?

Post by ldbright » Wed Nov 21, 2012 12:00 am

For job seeking reasons I need longer visa therefor I am planning to apply for 2nd tier 1 extension.

I will be completing my 5 years in 04/2014 (initial visa granted in 04/2009) and the second extension will bring me to 11/2014. My question is that if I scored enough points in 04/2014 to apply ILR, can I still do it in April or I have to wait till 11/2014 because of the 2nd extension.

Vice versa, if I have to work extra couple of monthes to get qualified for ILR, will HO accept earnings outside the 5 years period(from the initial visa grant date). In other words can someone apply for ILR if he/she stays more than 5 years in the country?

Any answers/ suggestions are welcome and thanks everyone in advance.
