I will be completing my 10 years long residency period on 29th October 2016, however my Tier 1 vis will be finishing on 13th June 2016 and I want to apply for ILR remain on 10 years long residence.

what is the best application option to cover this gap. should I apply for FLR(O) , FLR(FP) or any other visa application to gain the time till October 2016. Entry date in UK 29th October 2006.

i think you should go for fp and mention within grounds that makes you case special, eventhough you are not entitled for fp. but many aren't any way,,

You should be aware that the HO have become wise to frivolous FP application submitted simply to buy time for LR. The refusals are often issued quickly and before the LR date is reached.

Why dont you file for an extension to your T1 visa

The member is evidently busy sorting out their affairs and last visited the community almost 3 months ago.

Any Update on this question ?

I am in the similar situation and having 4.5 months gap before eligible for ILR.

Please share your experiences...

any news on this matter!! I also fall in the same category… Please update. Thanks

I don't understand HO rules. While I sympathise with people in the gap situation (I was in the same boat at one point and had to get married to cover ), HO should not count any time spent under a rejected frivolous FP etc. application towards ILR clock to stop variations. You see them trying to curb immigration in genuine cases and then they go around granting ILR for people who clearly fall short of the set criteria.

If they had had an update they had felt like sharing they would surely have done so.
