ILR success in Corydon 01.07.2011 , HSMP JR , 4 days short

[kevins]

Benefit a lot from this site, I just share my experience.

My VISA was granted on 26 Jul 2006, I arrived in UK on 27 Aug 2006.

My appointment was 11:15. I arrived 20 minutes earlier and my token number was called on 12:15.

the doc were asked by case worker:
SET O form,
Passports
3 months payslips
3 months bankstatment
Employee letter.

Case worker told me I submitted application a bit early and it should be 28 days before 27 Aug 2011. I showed him the new guidance that changed in April. He talked to his colleague then came back said its ok.
An hour later he completed the input and paperwork and told me my application was successful and go to counter 22 to collect passports in an hour.

I had lunch in the nearby town centre and came back to see ILR has been granted.

Am I right in assuming that your leave was due to expire before 30-Jul-2011? (i.e. - before the "28 days window" preceding the 5th anniversary of your entry in the UK).

2.2 Applications that fall short of the five year continuous period
In some cases, applicants may have been granted 5 years continuous leave, but will not have
spent 5 years continuously in the UK before their current leave expires. Caseworkers may
count the period between entry clearance being granted and the date the applicant entered
the UK towards the 5 years, provided this period was not longer than 3 months
