ILR qualifying period

Post by Sue6323 » Mon Feb 09, 2026 8:38 am

Hi,

I have made my application for ILR, using the advice from this website. I have done the following:

BRP issue date: 08/03/2021
Vignette date: 20/03/2021
Entered UK: 20/03/2021

application for ILR based on BRP issue date - 28 days before 08/03/2021 - applied 08/02/2026.
payment made, still do it biometrics and upload relevant documents. due 20/02/2026

please can i have assurance that i have done this correctly. i have read many of the advice comments, to use the BRP issue date.

thank you

Thanks Zimba for the link.

With my original post and the dates given, treat me as the dumbest person, that doesn't understand ILR guidance. did i use the correct dates for applying for ILR or do i need to withdraw before i do my biometrics?

i am really stressed about it.
