Switch from 10 year parent route to 5 year parent route?

[wynniechen]

Hi guys,

Grateful for your help!
I was granted 30 months for limited leave to remain as Parent (10 year route) leading to settlement. I was not eligible for the 5 year route because at the time of my application, I was in the UK as a visitor. It's almost 30 months now and I have to extend my stay. Can I switch to the 5 year route now provided I meet the financial and English requirements?

Thanks guys!

hi there... I wonder if you already sent the application on the 5 years route.
My situation is like yours the only difference is that I was granted on 10 years route because my income was very low. Now my situation is better.... but now I want to switch the routes. I been looking for the financial requirements criteria but I could't find anything. Do you know how much do I have to earn as a sole parent (1 child only).
appreciate your time ... thanks
