This is because he/she may satisfy the 10 year residency requirement by the time the UKBA CW actually considers the application (i.e. if they only get to the application after Sept 28th because of the volume of ILR cases they have). Do find out what the current processing times are first, by going over the sticky for the 10year ILR route available on this forum.
Well, that’s amazing if it can work like that, I was actually in the impression that a person can’t apply long residence even a single day in advance without strictly completing 10 years.
I would love to know someone who has applied ILR 28 days in advance with visa finishing before 10th anniversary.
Many thanks
