ILR Qualification Date Confusion - Please Help

Hi all,

I would highly appreciate if someone can guide me to the correct earliest date I can apply for ILR on the basis of Tier 2.

My initial Tier 2 was issued in country on 17th September 2013. I am looking for PEO appointment for 22nd of August (26 days before) to be on safe side but as you know desired appointments are nowadays difficult to get so I wanted to know if an appointment available then I am safe to apply on 20th August, 2018 as well (17 Sep minus 28 days)?

I know the calculation is extremely simply but what confuses me is different phrases on different places like on many places it says you can apply before up to 28 days you qualify for ILR and on one place I have read that your application should be within 28 days of your 5th anniversary. So your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Hassan

Within 28 days before 17th September 2018, which is the 5th anniversary AND the qualifying period of ILR.

Too early to get an appointment now though.

Hi CR001,

Yes, I know I cannot book appointment now but preparing in advance for on what date I should be looking for PEO appointment.

So as per your advise, 20th August should be safe to apply for ILR in my case?

Thanks,
Hassan
