Hello

My first issued visa date for the 5-year ECAA route is 23.04.2020 and the BRP date is 09.04.2020.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic emerged during this period and all borders were closed. When the borders reopened, they issued the second vignette dated 15.08.2020. I entered the UK on 20.09.2020 and applied for a new BRP card.

Based on this information, what should be my earliest application date?

Thanks in advance for your help

You will be eligible for ILR within 28 days of completing your 5 years, counting from the very first ECAA visa issue date which is 09.04.2020
