I'm also confused.

Didn't you get ILR on the basis of 5 years Tier 1 General, etc?

Moreover, your circumstances are different in this post too.

he got my ILR on the basis of 10 year legal residency.

She is probably eligible for ILR now.

Why did you make a different scenario on your other thread and ask multiple questions regarding the new financial requirement?

When asking on behalf of someone else, please don't use the word "I" or "my".

Ah I see now it's a 'friend'. As Vinny states, you should be clear from the beginning as it just causes unnecessary confusion.
