Does 6 months WP counts for ILR

Post by gainvidya » Tue Apr 01, 2008 11:59 am

Initially I came in UK with a 6 months of WP. Would that be counted for ILR as I've been reading bia sites and it excludes 6 months WP for lot of issues.

Not that I know of BIA saying directly something about ILR with respect to 6 months WP visa, but I am concerned.

Are you sure it's a WP and not a business visa???

I was on a 6 month WP, 2Yrs WP + 2 Yrs WP + 2 YRs WP .. and got ILR ( Application made after 4 yrs 11 months)

Can you give the link or source in BIA site which comments on the 6 months WP and relation to ILR?

TinTinTin, Thanks for confirming that. As I said I didnt see a direct mention of ILR and 6 month, but now that you've confirmed it has cleared my doubt.
