Was the application for the new visa made before the expiry of the old visa? If so Section 3C is in play, that is, the application has not been dealt with before the stated expiry date of the old visa, then that old visa is "treated as continuing" notwithstanding that the expiry date has passed. The Section 3C protection applies until the new visa is issued, or if declined, until the date for appealing against a rejection has passed.b/w 1 month u had no status ,as ur visa was in process passport wasnt with u it was in process for 3 months so will they count this time in 10yrs or not.
The only answer to this is that nobody actually knows. The draft bill indirectly suggested that the only way to ILR (or temporary citizenship) is after 5 years of working in the country, but as nothing has been formalised, I can only suggest that you wait and see what happens when the bill actually gets passed.tobiashomer wrote:Does anyone know the current status of the 10-year lawful continuous residence path to ilr--for someone who is still 3 years away? I have read several posts where people say it is likely to be cancelled in the new Bill. But for now at least it is still there...
thanks
