Anyhow, if what you say is true, you are not eligible for ILR as 245ZH(B)(x) is not met.

Is the question in context of extension or ILR?avjones wrote:Under this rule, I presume?
But the OP has stated that he was a Tier 2 (General) migrant between Sep'08 to Aug'10, and applied for Tier 2 (ICT) in Aug'10.vinny wrote:In the context of an extension, isn't 245ZF(b)(i)(3) possible?
"Qualifying Work Permit Holder" is different from "Qualifying Tier 2 migrant", IMHO. I say so because under the PBS system when a work permit (CoS) is granted because the applicant is/was the subject of an intra-company transfer the visa endorsement can only be Tier 2 (ICT) and not Tier 2 (General). Therefore, it is my understanding that the term "qualifying work permit holder" refers to migrants under the old WP scheme, and specifically those who were granted work permits as intra company transferees.245ZF(b)(i)(3) wrote:(3) as a Qualifying Work Permit Holder, provided that the work permit was granted because the applicant was the subject of an intra-company transfer, or
Aslam2010, As I understand it, in all probability you've been on an intra-company transferee visa ever since you entered UK in 2006.Aslam2010 wrote:Thanks sushdmehta. Here are the details,
1. The Visa stamping in the passport has
In 2006, Type of permit - Visa Work permit
In 2008, Type of permit - Limited Leave to Remain (2008)
In 2010, Type of Permiit - Tier 2 ICT (As per new rules, no Visa stamping but in the ID card, this is how it is found).
I have got extension in UK in 2008 and 2010.
2. I was working with my Employer in Home country in 2006 when applied and I haven't changed the Employer before and after 2006.
