http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/settlement/guidseto04091.pdf I am not sure I disagree with Senthil78 here. The guidance only states that you can apply 28 days before the completion of your qualifying period. It then states that the qualifying period for a work permit ...

In my opinion the old question was ambiguous, and led to questions being asked on this board ..... and the new question is not ambiguous. In my opinion, the old question was perfectly fine. The new one is a complete nightmare (said as someone who has a PEO appointment for ILR in the next couple of ...

Hi, Your post assumes that, as a WP holder, you would not be subject to ILR rules at the time of your ILR application (but would be subject to ILR rules as applicable at the time you got your WP). I am not sure this assumption is correct (hence the reason why the reversal of the 4 to 5 year old rule...

Amendment 23A
