You can vary your current application to another one but you do not get 10 years of lawful residence. As I said, you have became an overstayer in 2017 and your current application to succeed. This means you cannot apply under SET(LR)
Hi Zimba
That is very useful information. Can we switch/vary application while awaiting AR result?

If an application is decided what are you going to vary !!!?

Only an undecided application can be varied

Also, in addition to zimba88's advice, if you submit another application while in AR, your AR is automatically withdrawn.

First T1 50k app refused recently and went for AR on 15 June 2018. Now waiting for AR decision. Can I switch to spouse visa while AR is pending? Please clarify whether it can only be a fresh application or can I change/vary current application which is awaiting AR decision?
Secondly what will be my status of 10 yrs residency when I go for a fresh application?
Thanks in advance Guru’s.

Can you start your own topic please or continue in one you already have. It is considered rude to tag onto another member thread, is unfair to the OP and it creates confusion when members respond.

Will be careful next time. Thanks for splitting this.
I’m going to ask same question here.
First T1 50k app refused recently and went for AR on 15 June 2018. Now waiting for AR decision. Can I switch to spouse visa while AR is pending? Please clarify whether it can only be a fresh application or can I change/vary current application which is awaiting AR decision?
Secondly what will be my status of 10 yrs residency when I go for a fresh application? I mean only if my second application is successful then my 10 yrs will be considered intact?
Your response will be highly appreciated.

If AR is unsuccessful and I submit second application, Can I withdraw salary from my company while second app is in process?

No, you cannot be on the company's payroll
