You cant apply any earlier than 28 days. I read it somewhere its either 28 days earlier from the date your WP was issued or the day you entered into the country. Do you know which one?vic wrote:I entered the country on WP on 20th Sept 2002 - although my work permit was issued on 04th Sept 2002 - so I shall be applying anyday after 22nd August (counting back 28 days from 20th Sept) in person in Croydon.
BTW do you think I can apply earlier - counting back 28 days from he date my WP was issued rather than when I entered the UK ? (There seems to have been some discussion regarding this on another thread - but it was inconclusive)
What do you suggest ?

This only applies if you actually still possess the old passports. Obviously if you have "lost" your old passports they can't expect you to produce them.firstime wrote:I have called the HO and they said you have to submit all the old passports ...

He checked with a senior case worker and after going through a few pay slips, I was granted ILR. Make sure you have a strong company letter explaining the reasons of absence and take all your pay slips and p60's with you. Best of luck.
