I am so sorry to hear this mate... Hope all goes well.
These stories sometimes make me think again how bad our situations are at times... I wish all the best for you and your mother. Be strong and make sure you achieve big things so you make your dad proud..
Good luck.

I'll apply for ILR (10 year basis) in few months time. As HO takes 3-4 months to process the application, my current visa (Tier 2 General) will expire within this waiting period. My employer told me they will require some form of document that says I'm eligible to work, in order to continue my job beyond the Tier 2 visa expiry date.
So, my questions are,
1. Does the acknowledgement letter from HO say anything regards to this? - I doubt it. But if it does, I can then provide a copy to my employer.
2. Is it possible to request this from HO when I apply for ILR.

Hi can anyone help to clear my confusion
I got my entry clearance on 15/12/2004
Aarrived in uk 23/12/2004
Been all time on student visa
Last leave finished on 30/10/2014.
I was short of about 1 month and 24 days
I did apply FLR (O) on 30/10/2014
Got acknowledgement 7/11/2014
Biometric 12/11/2014
2nd biometric 25/11/2014
On 3/12/2014 I did vary my application to Set LR
Got acknowledgement on 12/12/2014
Biometric on 18/12/2014
Biometric done 18/12/2014.
My question is that someone on the forum said that if u vary u application then u cannot exempt for 28 days u have to complete ur 10 years then vary ur application for set LR
I m really confused since that as I applied my set LR on 3/12/2014 while my 10 years completes on 23/12/2014.
I m really worried m I be ok or HO will refuse my application as of early submission like out of time application.
Is there any law that if ur current leave expires n u put an in time application cannot be varied until u complete ur 10 years means u cannot apply before 28 days ????
Plz qoute.
Thanks
