ILR qualify period

[dhirajpawar2023]

hi admin,

please help .
What would be earliest ILR eligible date for me?
UK visa issued Tier 2 General : 22 Sept 2018
UK BRP start date : 15th September 2018
Initial entry to UK 29th September 2018

Also, what all documents do I need to submit? I have not changed any employers and not exceeded 180 days outside UK in any 12 rolling months in a year. I was out of country for 120 days due to COVID lockdown.

Thanks,
Dj

You start counting from the first visa approval date, so 15th September 2018. Adding 5 years and minus 28 days, that is the earliest date you can get ILR which is 18 August 2023. The online system will tell you what you need to send.

• passports from the last 5 years and your current BRP.
• your latest payslip and the corresponding bank account statement
• sponsor letter: All you need to know about the sponsor letter for Skilled Worker route
• Life in the UK test

Thanks Zimba for your reply.

Further to this :

Can I use UK ID check for Biometric or appointment is needed any idea? This is based on invitation to use it not decide upon by applicant. Based on experience of others, you are better off foinf for biometric appointment.
Is there any known best time to get the priority service for the application? Some reported getting it around 1am.

Thanks again
