Appointment booked after expiration of leave to remain

Hi,

I am on a work permit for the past 5 years. I have met all conditions for me to be able to apply for ILR.

My current leave to remain is expiring on 04 July 2013 but somehow I had it in my mind expiring on 21 July 2013 (stupid mistake on my part). My ILR premium processing appointment is booked for 12 July 2013, which means that I will have overstayed in the UK for 8 days!

What are the implications for this and what options do I have available to mitigate this?

I am sitting for my life in the UK exam on the 3rd of July so the earliest I can make a postal application is 4th July 2013, which is the same day that my leave is expiring.

Please help me as all my hardwork will go to waste just because I mad a mistake on my expiry date!
