Re: When to apply for naturalisation

Most probably, this is OK even if it breaks the rule. In the form you submitted, there was a clause that the HO could accept your application a few days later to be sure you meet the condition. But no guaranttee, of course.

Re: Tech Nation, timeline for Stage 1

I applied twice. First time I got quick reject: got a confirmation "forwarded to tech nation" 15 Nov, rejected 29 Nov. Second time was longer, but successful: confirmation 8 Dec, got an endorsement 16 Jan.

Good luck!

Re: Switched T1 (Entrepreneur) to T1 (Exceptional Talent) -- when can I apply for ILR?

Switched T1 (Entrepreneur) to T1 (Exceptional Talent) -- when can I apply for ILR?

Hi, I had T1 (Entrepreneur) for 5 years (firstly granted in 2013, extended in early 2017). Had no chance to convert to ILR (changed business in the last two years and did not hire two people for a full year). I applied for T1 ET (Tech Nation), successfully switched. When can I apply for ILR? After 3...
