hi I am currently working with a well known and reputed charity organisation on PSW. My PSW is going to expire at the end of march'10.

can someone help me? I am currently on PSW visa for last 1 year and 6 months and it's going to expire in next march'2010. I was on student visa for more than 3 and half years. So in total i am on lawful visa for more than 5 years in UK. Am i eligible for ILR?

as you are already on PSW, you should not go for sponsorship license or labour market test. you can straight away claim 30 points for being on PSW. no need to worry, you can easily claim required 50 points. see the points calculator on UKBA site. good luck.

I personaly think in both c...
