Post by nit » Mon Aug 20, 2012 11:43 pm

Hi,

I came to UK in March 2009 under ICT (Work Permit) and extended my VISA in November 2009 (ICT ).The last extension was on October 2011 (ICT long term ) and VISA is valid until Jan 2014.The total time spent in UK will be therefore 4 yrs 9 months when my current VISA expires.Can i extend my stay for one more year in order to apply for ILR.
Thanks in Advance

Thanks,
Athvi.

Thanks.Is that because my initial grant was before April 2010 though my last extension was made after April 2011(October 2011) when i apply under Long term staff to extend beyond 5 years?
