Uninterrupted Work Permit (5yrs)-28 days calculation for ILR

[firangi]

Hi

Any reply to the below question:

I was issued with a 5 yrs Work Permit on 04.11.08 and I entered UK on 11.12.08. I am with the same employer since entry in the UK.

Since the difference is less than 90 days, am I right in understanding that:

1) That period (between visa stamping and entering UK) will be counted towards my "continuity period of 5 yrs to be eligible for ILR"

2) Because of point 1, I can apply for ILR 28 days before the visa stamped day (04.11.08) and not entry in UK date (10.12.08)

Please confirm

Thanks
