Consideration of Stay during Study Visa

Post by chaudhryis » Sun Apr 06, 2008 12:38 pm

Dear all,

Appreciate if some one could clarify this. Does stay during on student visa (Before applying for HSMP) calculate towards 5 years stay requirment for permanent residency?

Thanks

No.Time apent on your student will not count towards your ILR.

Anyway, where is the rational of including stundent visa towards ILR qualifying year ?

No it does not count for 5 year rule. But it would count for PR for 10 year legal stay basis.
