ILR Qualifying Period

[chipaz]

Hi, can you please assist? I’d like to understand the five-year qualifying period for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). I’m on a Skilled Worker visa, which is valid from June 26, 2022, to May 22, 2025 and I plan to renew it, but I’m not sure whether it should be for 3 years or 2 years. I arrived in the UK on July 18, 2022, and applied for the visa on June 3, 2022. When is the earliest I can apply for ILR?
