Query for ILR: Need continuous stay or continuous Employment

Post by VaibhavJ » Sun Aug 06, 2017 6:49 am

Hi,

I have been on Tier 2 General visa since Dec 2012. But before I joined my company after visa work, took a month's break. So my employment started in Feb 2013.
I believe I am eligible for ILR end of this year but not sure when to apply, once I finish 4years 11 months in UK on this category i.e. Nov 2017 or once I finish 4 years 11 months in employment i.e. Jan 2018.

Any inputs regarding this will be really appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,
Vaibhav

did you switch from another visa category into Tier 2 from inside UK or did you apply for Tier 2 from abroad and then entered UK using the tier 2 visa?

Hi,
Yes I was on Tier 2 ICT earlier since 2010 and changed the category to General in 2012

Hi, I am in the same situation but I was switched from PSW visa to Tier 2 general visa. Any suggestions are helpful.

Please continue in your existing topic where you are already receiving advice. It is considered rude to tag onto other members threads and it creates confusion, especially when you are getting advice already.
