Hi everyone,
I obtained an exceptional talent visa valid from May 3 2013 valid until Sept 3 2015 but only entered on Sept 30 2013.
I'll be extending this year for two years.
My question is -- I was really stupid and didn't realise I needed to enter the UK in 90 days and delayed my entry too long. When my two year extension runs out, I'm presuming Sept 3 2017, I will probably not be able to apply immediately for ILR since I will have a shortfall of 27 days in the 5 year residency requirement.
Can I extend the Exceptional Talent another 2 years to give myself time to apply for ILR?
I have heard you can apply 28 days before the 5 year residency requirement comes up but that is really cutting it close, and my employer is very strict about checking my work visa to make sure every day is accounted for.
Thanks!
