Hi Everyone,
First, many thanks to all of you for being helpful by answering all the queries here on the forum.
I am new to forum, I've read FAQ and other threads in and out of Immigration board. However still not clear of my usecase.
24th August 2009 - I was initially granted T2 ICT valid till, 13th August 2012 (not sure why it was 10 days less than 3 years)
29th August 2009 - I entered UK and stamped by UK BA at the port of entry
However due to some personal reasons (to visit India), i had to get it extended well in time, so, my leave to remain is extended (on 26th July 2012) till 31st July 2014. Hence I missed almost 13 days.
Now, what I am not clear is, If I start counting 5 years from the date of entry, 29th August, i would not have completed 5 years by 31st July 2014 (I will miss by a day or two).
Do I really have to start counting 5 years from the date of first arrival (29th August 2009)? or from the date of issue of first leave to remain (24th August 2009)?
if latter? is there a possibility to extend my stay to complete 5 years?
Or what is the possibility of getting success by applying on 31st July 2014 (unavoidably premium service)?
Please advise. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Polani
