Do read given below threads; as few made successful early applications for ILR.Jacob123 wrote:Dear members, Need your help to clarify a point that is bothering me.
1. My first tier 1 visa was Tier 1 General, from 28th May 2011 to 28th May 2013
2. I applied for Tier 1 general visa extension but processing happened much faster than my expectation and visa was issued on the 23rd May 2013. The extension was from 23rd May 2013 to 23rd May 2016
I have 2 questions:
1. If I consider a period from 28th May 2011 to 23rd May 2016, I will be short on 5 years mark by 5 days. Would I need another extension before applying for ILR. When I read the guidelines it says you can apply 28 days before expiry of visa. Does that mean I can apply 28th days before even when I am short on 5 years by 5 days
2. I actually entered UK on a Tier 2 ICT visa in Dec 2010, the visa was issued to me around mid December 2010.Would my stay on Tier 2 ICT visa between 21st Dec 2010 and 27th May 2011 (on the 28th May I got Tier 1 general) count towards 5 years. Would I be able to apply for ILR on the 21st December 2015. Can my stay on ICT tier 2 visa be counted for 5 years limit
This forum has helped me immensely during my first visa application and extension application. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Jacob

Even i have similar case:
Could you please help me whether i am eligible for ILR in April 2015 or not. Below is my visa dates
Initial granted visa : May 14th 2010 to May 13 th 2012
first Entry clearance in UK : June 18th 2010
Tier 1 Visa Extension Applied on : May 3rd 2012 , Got extension valid from May3rd 2012 to May 3rd 2015.
So can i apply ILR 28 days before from my expiry date i.e on April 7th 2015 or i have to apply Tier1 Extension?
Regards,
mkr
