the last advise is wrong.
There is nothing stopping you from applying whenever u want.
you can apply today, in sept 2016 or sept 2017.. all you have to make sure is you apply before the expiry of your current leave.
however, if you apply too early, then you waste the time allowed to stay on tier 2. So lets assume your intiial leave was given in sept 2014-sept 2017. If u get a 3 years cos in sept 2016 rather than 2017, your leave will be till 2019 as opposed to 2020 if u had applied in 2017. Unless you apply with a 5 years cos in 2016, in which case it will be 2020 sept again, as you cant have leave for more than 6 years.
