19 days shorter for 5 years for ILR

Post by ukba2536 » Mon Feb 11, 2013 1:31 pm

Hi

I'm worried about my total 5 years duration time which is mandatory for ILR visa, cos i calculated my visa dates and found that i have been granted less than 5 years ( from starting date to expiry date ukba had issued me only for 4 years 11 months 13 days, 19 days shorter for 5 years duration ). now im confused what to do and whom to contact
or is it a normal situation

below are the dates

1st time visa granted on 12-AUG-2008 TO 24-JULY 2011
EXTENDED ON 20-JULY 2011 TO 24-JULY-2013

i calculted the days using http://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html
including the last day(24-july-2013)

please advice me

Thanks

I think you will be ok as long as you apply within 28 days from your 5th anniversary. It gives a very short window of about 9 days but i dont see an issue why it will not work.

Do you know why you were not granted the full term? Did your initial visa application accompany any time-specifying document?

Search for 'Endorsement', 'Endorsement Error', 'Endorsement correction' here or in Google.. UKBA has a link on that.
