10 yrs is 10 Yrs! Forget what anybody has to say... and Just pay attention to what UKBA has to say: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... iew=Binary

I speak from experience, Mixture of Student Visa.... What UKBA is looking for is 10yrs Legally *regardless of Visa Type* without Breaks... anyways Go read the Guide and I will sleep easy!

I think in two years time the 10 and 14 year paths to ILR wil be gone as the immigration doors are slowly closed...
