Working out my date of appointment for ILR

I am in the process of applying for ILR in July through premium appointment @ PEO.

Can someone please help me work out from which date I can start to book an appointment?

1. I was granted 5 years Work permit (in country application) on 3rd August 2007.
2. I then applied for 3 years Tier 1 General on 15th August 2009 which expires on 15th August 2012 (as I wanted to change jobs).

As I understand, I can apply for ILR within 28days of my visa expiry (i.e. after 4 years 11 months 3 days) I have therefore calculated that I can start to book an appointment from 15th July 2012 onwards.

Is that correct?

Thanks

You can apply 28 days before August 3. I can't be bothered to work out if that equates to your suggestion of July 15 (although it probably does not!).

irfanb00: Your 5 years complete on Friday, 3 August 2012 and you can apply 28 days before this date which would be Friday, 6 July 2012.

The appointments become available 42 days (6 weeks) in advance and to book a slot for 6th July 2012, you need to do it on Friday, 25 May 2012 (at midnight when the date changes from 24th to 25th April).

Apologies for the confusion. I got my dates the wrong way round....

1. I was granted 5 years Work permit (in country application) on 15th August 2007.
2. I then applied for 3 years Tier 1 General on 3rd August 2009 which expires on 3rd August 2012 (as I wanted to change jobs).

Now can you tell me if I am right to assume that I can start to book my appointment from 15th July or later?

Thanks & apology again.

No problem, according to your new dates, your 5 years complete on Friday, 15 August 2012 and you can apply 28 days before this date which would be Wednesday, 18 July 2012. (You can’t apply before 18th July).
