just noticed updated set LR guidance policy , updated on 24/11/16,, page reduced from 54pages to 43..... new changeson page #8::::
the applicant must not be in breach of immigration laws, except
o for any period of overstaying for 28 days or less which will be disregarded where the period of overstaying ended before 24 November 2016
o where overstaying on or after 24 November 2016, leave was never the less granted in accordance with paragraph 39E of the immigration rules
– for more information on overstaying, see applications from overstayers (non family routes).. page19*********

paragraph 39E of the immigration rules NOW SAYS:
39E. This paragraph applies where:
(1) the application was made within 14 days of the applicant’s leave expiring and the Secretary of State considers that there was a good reason beyond the control of the applicant or their representative, provided in or with the application, why the application could not be made in-time; or

(2) the application was made:
  • (a) following the refusal of a previous application for leave which was made in-time or to which sub-paragraph (1) applied; and
    (b) within 14 days of:

This change of '14 days' is applicable to all applications, not only ILR LR. Been posted on forum the same day it was published.
