Thanks guys for your help, so does anyone think my dad could apply for the ILR? His current visa expires in Aug 2008 and in Nov will be 10 yrs so you can see a huge gap, for when he is going to apply for it. The only time your dad can apply for ILR based on the LRC is 28 days before the tenth anniv...

Yes, my friends husband came to the UK on a spouse visa,
Did your hubby include a pass certificate for Life in the UK Test or ESOL Leve 3 pass certificate?

If NO, then that is the reason.

Reason I am asking, if a person was absent in the whole of February in a particular year, do the count it as 28/29 days or a whole month? It will be interestin...
