ILR Eligibilty -Under the 10 Year Long Residence Route
Posted: Mon May 10, 2021 9:49 pm
Hi,
I would like some advice on whether I am eligible to file for ILR under the 10 Year Long Residence Route.
1. I came to the UK in 2014 on ICT Tier 2 Visa.
2. I switched to PBS Dependant Visa in 2019 with my wife on Tier 2 General Visa (until 2022).
3. I am going to switch to Skilled Worker Visa again from 2022 up to 2024 due to my wife's visa expiry.
4. I will complete my 10 years of residence in the UK in 2024.
5. I spent around 350 days out of the country in these 10 years with 7 months out of the country
without a UK visa serving a cooling-off period.
Please could you advise if I am eligible to file for ILR in 2024 under the 10 Year Long Residence Route?
If not, then I have to switch to Skilled Worker Visa for 5 years to be eligible for ILR in 2027.
Appreciate your inputs.
Regards
HK
