Am I eligible for ILR

[maya79]

I have been on a Tier 2 Visa since Dec 2012. It is now April 2018 and within the 5 years and 4 months, I have only worked less than 4 years approx. 46 months.

I was unemployed thrice (1st time 4 months, 2nd time 12 months and now 2 months). My last job ended Feb 2018 and I now have a job offer to start 1st week in May 2018.

So my questions are:

does my period of unemployment affect my continuous working period?
with my new job, can I apply for a 4th Tier 2 Visa but bearing in mind that it can't be extended beyond Dec 2018?
what are my chances of applying for ILR this year?

Thank you

How do I get a response from Admin?

Admin does not respond to questions. They manage the back-end of the systems.

Other users, who have been through the immigration process and therefore who are more likely to know about it, will respond to your topic in case they feel they can address your issue.
