Thanks a lot all, very helpfull indeed.

Hi, I have quick question about the following criteria for ILR application: "During the last 12 months of the five-year period you must not have been outside the UK for more than 90 days" I wonder if the day of departure and arrival count as being overseas. For instance, if I depart 03/12 ...

The form I found for ILR was the SET(0). But this one already mentions the change in the rules.

Which is the "old" for that do not mention the new rules, for which officials are willing to accept until June? Could you provide a link for this? Thanks a lot.

I have completed 3 years under the HSMP. However, I have been in the UK for 4 years as I spent my first year here in a full-time MSc.

Given it's a total of 4 years, can I already apply for ILR? Or should it be 4 years under the HSMP? Thanks a lot.

I'm a HSMP since Aug-2002, and have been exempted from the fees since the beginning (the fees came out only more recently, I guess). My son was born in London in Jul-2003 and I had his passport stamped for no fee. Also my HSMP renewal in Aug-2003 was free. Now I need to have my daughter’s passport s...
