I just want to know as it was a mistake from UK Border agency that they took so long.If They gave me the visa when I applied in 2008 that I would have been eligible for ILR in next year(2013).But now I have to wait for another couple of year.

I just want to know is any thing can be done in this situation?

Can I ask home office to grant me ILR in 2013 instead of 2016?

Please help.....


Thanks

Were you in the UK in 2008 ?

Logically you should be able to apply for ILR in 2013 but I do not think you would be able to do that, as you can not include your PSW leave towards your ILR under T1, no matter whose mistake that was. Wait until some Gurus comment

Your PSW leave continued to be valid while your T1 application was under consideration and appeal. So that's three years under PSW rather than T1, which you did not have during that time. You can't include PSW in the residence period that leads to ILR for a T1 migrant.

You said you are in Uk since 2005. so you can actually apply by 2015 based on 10 year long residency. Not much of difference (2016/2015) but have heard 10 year long residency is less compalicated than 5 year Tier 1 general.. in terms of proving income, points etc..
