I would consider this approach risky.Holloway wrote: ↑Tue Sep 17, 2019 11:35 amHi All,
Hope you are well.
My Ten years (28 days eligibility) starts on 23rd December 2019. My Entrepreneur visa expires on 21st December 2019.
I have spoken to a solicitor who has advised that i can put in ten-year route application on 21st December 2019 and give biometrics after 23rd of December. This way my ten-year application should be processed.
Can someone please confirm if this is right?
Because i will have 2 days gap in between? Will i be classified as an overstayer?
Many thanks
Also remember in a similar fashion, UKVI procedures allow you to vary a pending application to SET(LR). The date of such application remains the original date of the first application. If HO would stick to the original date as per procedures, anyone who varies his/her application to SET(LR) will have to be refused. This is obviously NOT the case because the date of the decision trumps the day of the application when it comes to calculating the lawful residence periodTime the applicant has spent in the UK with 3C leave also counts towards lawful residence.

Both 3C and 3D leave count as existing leave to enter or remain in the UK, and therefore as lawful residence for the purpose of the 10 year long residence rule.
Invalid applications were more likely in the past because people made those mistakes when applying via the old postal route. The online procedure now removes pretty much most of the causes of application invalidity. The advice given by marcnath is not safer as I explained but surely is far more expensive as UKVI will not refund the IHS fees paid and you have to pay money for an extension that could take weeks to be refundedseagul wrote: ↑Tue Sep 17, 2019 8:17 pmI haven't seen any case at very present but definitely seen a lot cases few years ago when UKBA (UKVI's previous name) used to return the application as invalid if someone is not eligible for the applied route on the date of application/paid incorrect fee/used wrong application form/didnt sign. And an invalid application doesnt gets section 3C despite resending the application within 28 days which is now 14 days is pardoned if thats the only one single occasion when it happens. In my opinion marcnath suggested approach is more safer despite whatever zimba is saying is also correct if that is the present trend/approach.
No.1) Should I quote section 3c in my cover letter? If yes, then which section of the guidance should I quote?
LIUK, Language evidence, all your passports2) What documents shall I submit under the 10 yr route ILR?
No! They are ONLY required if you do NOT have all passports covering the 10 years including the one you entered the UK with.
