Hi All!

I am currently on Tier 2 (General) since June 2011. Before that I was on Tier 1 (General) from March 2011 to June 2011. I am planning to apply for ILR next year as Tier 2 (General) migrant as I will complete 5 years. My question is:

1. Whether the period I spent on Tier 1 (General) from March'11 to June'11 be counted towards my ILR so that I can apply for ILR in March 2016?

2. If yes then will I have to show any proof of earnings or any other documents for the period I spent on Tier 1 (General)?

3. How early can we apply for ILR? Is it 28 days before we complete 5 years?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Can the Gurus on the forum please help!!

Thanks!

1.Yes, you can include Tier1(G) periods too.
2.Yes.
3.Atleast 4 years, 11 months & 2 days.

What was your date in March 2011?

My date was 10th March 2011. I wasn't employed for March'11 and April'11 while I was on Tier 1 General. I only started working towards end of April'11. Do you think that will create a problem?

Many thanks
