how have you spent the 5 years in the UK. All as a student? do you have any dependants?

If the 5 years you spent was as a student, and if it was all below degree level, then there may be a problem as the maximum time a person is allowed to remain as a student below degree level is 3 years. Also, to extend, you must show academic progress.
