2. Do i need to go for another Extension before applying ILR? Yes as your Visa expires on 14-Jan-2015.

Thanks jilpangs for your response.

Can i be able to change to Tier 2 General with another employer at the end of current visa period on 14 Jan 2015 ?

When i will be eligible for ILR if i change it to Tier 2 general after 14 Jan,2015 ?
Does 4 year 11 month in TIER 2 ICT will count towards ILR ? or clock sticks from day when i apply the Tier 2 general?

Appreciate and Thanks in advance.

My question

you can apply 28 days before 28 Jan 2015 because of the concession described on p22:

2. Do i need to go for another Extension before applying ILR?
no

If you wish you can also switch to T2G any time with a new CoS and it will not re-set your ILR clock
