ILR eligibility question

Post by Tushar » Sun May 09, 2010 6:54 pm

My student visa was granted on 20th August 2004.
My post study work visa was granted on 29th Nov 2005
I started working on 12th Dec 2005
My company sponsored my work permit and my work permit visa was granted on 14th August 2006 and I am still on work permit.

When would I be eligible to apply for permanent leave to remain.

August 2011 I reckon. Student time and PSW doesn't count unless for 10 year legal stay.

You can apply 28 days before your qualifying period. You can apply in July 2011.

Your ILR clock started the day you entered UK (if WP visa was applied from outside UK) or the day WP leave to remain was issued (if applied from within UK).
