HSMP Extension and ILR.

When I received my HSMP extension (1+4 years), the sticker on the passport said "Limited Leave to Remain". It didn't say "Highly skilled migrant". However, the accompanying letter with the passport said the HSMP was extended for 4 years. Is this normal?
Don't they put the name of the visa category on the extension stickers?

I am soon going for ILR, I just want to ensure that all my papers are in order.

It is not an issue. Some of my visa's have the type of visa while some do not. This is normal.
Just remember to submit your Home office letter that was issued alongwith the extension.
