You can apply for your ILR 28 days before 19th May 2018, so around 22nd April 2018.
Given that it is less than 12 months from your extension, you can use the job creation between April 2017 and April 2018 (12 months before application date).

Since Employee 2 and Employee 3 are both full time, you can't combine them to make it one job. Combining only works for part-time jobs.

However, you can list them as three separate jobs and still meet the job requirement as you are pre-April 2014

Dear Gurus,
I would like to get few suggestions on filling my application form as I am applying for my ILR by end of this month and I was struck with few questions. (I hold Tier 1 entrepreneur VISA)
1) Section 5: 5.3 - "Are you working in UK?" - I am The Director of the Company, I am not making any profit (running in loss) so I am not on payroll. Also I am not taking any dividends. So should I mark it as "YES" or "NO".
2) Section 6: 6.1 - "First Entry to UK" - My first entry was as student in 2009 (Sep) and left in 2011 (Jan) for 7 months I was still holding my visa (PSW) and came back in 2011 (Aug). I entered into Tier 1 entrepreneur in May 2013. So which date should I mention in the form?
3) Section 7: 7.13 - "Period of living" - Should I mention the period from the day I enter in UK (2009 as student) or From the date I came back (2011 Aug) or the period since I entered Tier 1 entrepreneur route.

Kind Regards,

Kind Regards,

1) You are on a work visa category and you are working, so I would answer yes. This has very little impact anyway.
2) 6.1 clearly states "beginning of the period of stay on which this application is based." So, T1E entry date
3) I would go with 2009 on
