Hi,
Please find my visa history below. In summary I have continuous visa from 04/06/2010 on Tier 2 ICT. Could you please let me know if I am eligible for ILR in 2015 or 2016? If not, will I be able to switch to ICT General for the same sponsor from UK? If I switch, will my stay so far be counted towards ILR?
Details of my complete visa and travel history is as follows:
a) Work Permit(Issued in India)-Sponsor 1 - Validity (10/04/2007 - 31/12/2008) - Entry 06/05/2007 - Exit 26/04/2008

d) Went back to India on medical leave for 11 months, working at offshore for the same company. Visa expired in December 2009
e) Received CoS from company on 31 March 2010 and applied for Visa stamping on 09 April 2010. Visa refused as CoS didn't have ICT sub-categories which were introduced from 6 April 2010 - Reapplied visa with revised CoS and got ICT - Established staff visa
