Tier 2 (General) to ILR

[JayAJ]

Hello there,
I am a T2 general employer sponsored WP holder.
In order to make an ILR application for myself, it will be 5 years level points only around June however my T2 Visa expires on March - does it mean I have to apply for an extension of 1 year for T2 visa or can directly put through an application for ILR with the expiring period ?

can you advise me the best possible options/suggestions ?

You must have valid leave/visa to qualify and apply for ILR.

What is your full UK immigration history including visa start and end dates, date you entered the UK etc?

Hi,

Thank you.
Below is my full immigration history of myself - as you see my visa end for current T2 General is March however in order to make 5 years period it leaves still 3 months gap.

Sep 2010 - Jan 2012 : Student Visa
Jan 2012 - June 2014 : T1 Post Study Work Permit
June 2014 - March 2016: T2 General Work Permit (Sponsored Visa - Actual Expiry of Visa was July 2017, but switched company)
March 2016 - March 2019: T2 General Work Permit (New company Visa)

You will need to apply for an extension.
