Tier 2 (G) to Tier 1 (Entrepreneur)

Hi All,

I currently under Tier 2 general visa which is due to expire in 2nd week of July 2014. My employer is not willing to assign a CoS for an extension. Keeping this in mind I am now looking at the possibility of switching to a Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa.
Coming July I would complete three years in Tier 2 category and assuming that I am successful in switching to a Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa, will I be eligible for ILR in say July 2016?

Your reply will be greatly appreciated.

as to when you will be eligible for ILR after switching to T1(E) see Immigration Rule 245DF:
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... MASTER.pdf.
which refers to Appendix A to the Immigration Rules (where you should read para 38 and Table 6, line 3)

Hi Manci,

I have read the documents in the links you have provided but I am still confused as to when I would be eligible to apply for an ILR ie is it in July 2016 (if i am successful in switching to a Tier 1 Entr)
The information in the documents in my opinion is not clear on switching circumstances. grateful if you can provide some info in this case.

Regards,
