New ILR law from July 9th 2012, will it effect me??

[artman2001]

Hi i would like to know if the new ILR law will effect me. I got married in early 2010 and entered the UK on a spouse visa in late 2010. I am still currently happily married to my partner, i have also passed my life in the UK and have documents to prove we live together and would like to know if i can apply for my ILR before the 9th July 2012 as my current spouse visa runs out in september 2012 and from what i am told i can only apply for ilr 28 days before my visa finishes.

The questions i have are:

If i wait till August 2012 and apply for my ilr, will i still be considered under the old rules of the 2 year probation period? instead of the 5 years.

Can i apply for my ILR before 9th July 2012 without having to wait until August 2012? (28 day period before my visa expires)

Please Help!!

Thank You
