Tier 2 ICT to Tier 2 General to ILR (post Apr'10)

[efoo28]

Hi there,

I've 2 questions and was wondering if anyone can help I've my ILR premium service scheduled at Croydon on June 1st at 08:30

1) I came on an Tier 2 ICT on March 2011, and converted to Tier 2 General in June 2014. Technically speaking, I don't qualify to apply for ILR. However, besides this, application is a solid one, high salary, Harvard grad, 10 years at same investment bank, no dependants, no more than 180 days outside the UK

2) I want to try apply for it myself and if I get rejected, will wait until 2019 when I've done my 5 year term under Tier 2 General. Does anyone know if a previous rejection will jeopardize a subsequent application?

Thanks.

1. You don't qualify for ILR, regardless of it being a 'solid application'. It does not matter what you earn now or where you graduated from, if you don't qualify according to the rules you will be refused. Tier 2 ICT issued after 6th April 2010 does not lead to ILR/Settlement.

2. It won't have any effect on your current visa or future ILR application, but you will be a couple of grand poorer. But at least you will have done LIUK test!
