Hi,

I was reading through the link below w.r.t latest immigration changes

http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/publicatio ... iew=Binary

From 13 December 2012 we will be making the following changes:
Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer) Migrants can stay in the UK for a maximum of 5 years in the Long Term Staff sub-category. The category does not lead to settlement and a 12 month “cooling off period” applies before migrants can return.

Does this apply to all Tier 2 ICT or for Applications put in after April 2011.

I have first arrived to UK on Nov 2009 and have extended twice, and will I be eligible for ILR on Nov 2014 or because of above rule I will not be eligible for settlement.

Any advice is appreciated.

Regards,
