Can we apply ILR?

[ethan]

Dear ALL.

Can we apply ILR now?

According to the 8/07 news:

9.
If an applicant meets these requirements we will grant them:
a.
Three years’ leave; or
b.
Enough leave to enable the applicant to complete the qualifying period for settlement,
whichever is the greater

based on our 4 years hsmp, we have stay here enough so could we apply it?

But i applied for extenstion under tier 1 in JUne. MY passports are in HO. It seems quite confused.
12.
Migrants will be able to apply for subsequent extensions of stay under these provisions should they not wish to apply for settlement.

how we can do now? send email or call HO to apply ILR.

thanks a lot!

ILR qualifying period is still 5 years. There is no indication / information to suggest that it has been reduced to 4 years for pre-Dec '06 HSMPians.

If in doubt, check with UKBA directly.
