Queries:

As I gone through few posts then think that I am eligible to apply on long term residence? Please confirm.
Will the home office calculate 10 years on the date of decision or date of application submit date? Can I apply little early in July?

For long residence, you can apply 28 days before the 10th anniversary of your first entrance into the UK (which is when your residence would have started).

So you should be able to apply after 17th September this year.

UK is getting rid of 10 year ILR. Get a sponsored visa or make plans to go home.

The date of entry is no longer relevant as the rules were changed in 2024
