HI ALL,

now my question is that my 6 year period is going to be completed on 3rd of October 2017 but my last
DLR was issued on 27th October 2104, Can I apply foe ILR on 3rd of October 2017 as my 1st DLR was issued on 3rd October 2011.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hi ALL,
I'm going to apply for ILR through DL (6 year base), will I need to take any English test or Life in the UK ?
many thanks

according to the rule , the gap taken by home-office is included in 6 years and yes you can apply. The life in the UK test and English language skills are not necessary for ILR but will be required when you apply for Naturalisation.

Moderators: Please correct me if i am wrong.

Thanks

Thank u very much Azhar Bhai,
so I can apply anytime after 3rd September 2017 as I was told that one can apply in 28 days before the expiry of current visa, is it correct or not?

HI Alis/ Casa

What form are you using for ILR ? I'm a 2x times 3 year DLR holder and I found this form on HO web site (FLR/DL) but it doesn't say if it can be used for premium - Is there any other forms that can be used ?

Thank You

You have to use SET (O) for ILR.....and tick other purposes.....
