So are you saying that he has been "legal" in the UK for the last 10 years? If yes, he can indeed apply for ILR, as long as he has passed the Life in the UK Citizenship test.

Has to be ten years, but watch for out-of-country switches - was he required to switch out-of-country when he did and was there a gap where he had no visa?
