Apply no earlier than 28 days before 25/10/13 and no later than 25/10/13. Hi Sushdmehta - I was under the impression from reading the FAQs and guidance that ILR clock starts on day you enter UK on the qualifying visa, so in pragneshmpatel's case shouldn't it be not earlier than 28 before 18/11/13? ...

hi pragneshmpatel Ur qualifying period is 28 days before 21/10/2013 not from 25/10/2013. if u count from 25/10/2013 so u could go more than 28 days which is alarming, as guidance note clearly mentioned that you shudn't apply before 28 days from ur qualifying period, it doesnt matter how long ur lea...
