1) continuous period, (not having spent 540 days in total outside UK none of which includes 180 days at one time)

2) LIFE IN THE UK TEST

3) English language

is that all ?

this is topic about a close friend of mine. The issue is as follows.

Tier 1 Extension application is made in June 2016 and interviewed in Sept. 2016 and no news since then.
But this march,he is eligible for ILR under 10 yr long residence ( good immigration history).

Now, there is very pressing and urgent need to travel abroad for business and personal reasons and I told him he could make sure of same-day services and vary the Tier 1 to ILR. But, I hv few questions around this.

1) To vary application, is there any specail forms to be filled in ? or is it just the SET (LR) ?

2) Given, he will not hv passport with him , (but he has all his travel dates out of country noted down, so the form can be filled)..how long it has taken in the past for similar applicants ? This info is very important to make a decision as he could alternatively wait for Tier 1 Ent to come though (can try via MP) if SET (LR) is going to take months ?

3) If he varies, I take his Tier will be withdrawn and with his ILR application, will he have section 3c (the intial Tier made in time) . This is just to make sure if anything unexpected happens, he has some legal grounding and do not lose 10 yr cont. period.

any advice in this situationn is highly appreciated.

In which case, I suggest that your friend registers on the forum and posts his own queries.
