WHEN COULD I APPLY FOR B C

[SAKSHI007]

DETAILS IF THAT HELPS TO FIGURE OUT NAT DATE
I came to the UK on 17051994

MY dad applied for ILR in jan 2007 adding me as dependent children
he got ILR but we were refused , reson given i did not complete 14 years and not under 18years

Then I applied again after this refusal and got my discreationary leave to remain in may 2008 .


So Tecnically speaking my first application was logged in year 2007 .


DO I BECOME LEGAL FROM THE DATE MY APPLICATION WAS RECEIVED BY HOME OFFICE IN 2007 ???????

IF YES . COULD I COUNT MY RESIDENTIAL PERIOD OF 5 YEARS FROM THAT DATE IN 2007.

OR WHEN I APPLIED IN 2007 AND GOT GOT MY DICRETIONARY LEAVE .

OR FROM THE DATE I GOT MY DISCRETIONARY LEAVE IN MAY 2008

PLEASE LET ME KNOW AT THE EARLIEST WHEN CAN I APPLY FOR NAT.
I have been granted ILR ON NOV 2009 on a 14 year basis .

Many thanks.
