How to calculate ILR eligibility date?

[hpsanampudi]

Hi,
My Tier 2(General) visa issued on 02/05/2014 and I have entered in UK on 05/07/2014.
From: 02/05/2014; To: 05/07/2014
Absence: 65 days (which is less than 90 days)

Question: Am I eligible to book appointment on 11/04/2019 (which is prior to 28 days of 02/05/2019)?

Regards,
hp

Thank you for your quick reply. I have few more questions to you which I have missed it in my initial post
Questions:

• For above mentioned absence of 65 days, do I need to provide any letter from my UK company with reason for delay (or) my last India company relieving letter is sufficient?

• Below is my 12 months break down for 180 days limit outside UK, do I need to provide supporting document(s) for each absence?

  Code: Select all

  12 Months	 From	        To	  	Days (Outside UK)
  Year 5		11/04/2018	11/04/2019	
  Year 4		11/04/2017	11/04/2018	22
  Year 3		11/04/2016	11/04/2017	12
  Year 2		11/04/2015	11/04/2016	23
  Year 1		11/04/2014	11/04/2015	65 (Delay Start)
  				Total		122

For the time between issue and arrival no letter is needed. For others, an employer letter is required which should say all your absences from work were granted with their permission

Your children cannot apply for ILR with you. They will follow the same path as your wife and will be able to apply for ILR when she does.
