Your post has been moved to your own topic from the member's thread you had tagged your question onto.

It's not only unfair to the other member, but also causes confusion.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

The application form FLR(O) was withdrawn over two years ago, and replaced with several different application routes depending on your circumstances.

Another user asked this same question in the topic where you originally posted, and I gave detailed information there. It is all still correct.

I strongly advise you discuss your concerns with your Tier 4 sponsor. They may be unwilling to issue a CAS to someone has has made a LTR application outside the rules, because of the possibility of a credibility refusal.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
