However, I later discovered that a few departure dates were incorrect due to time zone differences. E.g. I left UK on 0...

Re: Does resignation have any impact on ILR (LR) application?

Thank you both CR001 and zimba! I guess I should stay on the safer side and wait until I receive ILR.

So I am quite confused -- would it be possible to submit ILR (set LR) application 28 days before I stay for exactly 10 years? Yes.

There is no such requirement. The salary must be as stated in the SOC or higher is also fine. Cannot be lower than SOC.

Hi, I've read that an "appropriate salary" is required to change jobs/apply for a new Tier 2 visa, where the new salary must be higher than the experienced worker level/30k, whichever is higher.
