Counting Graduate entrepreneur time for Naturalisation period

Post by GTguy » Fri Mar 11, 2022 1:39 pm

Hello,

I will be applying for naturalisation next year after completing 1 year on ILR and 3 years on Global Talent.

Could I add my prior 1 year on Tier 1 Graduate entrepreneur visa to complete the 5 year qualifying period?

Just confirming whether time spent in the UK on Graduate Entrepreneur counts as residence in the UK for the purpose of calculating the residential qualifying period.

Thanks!

All lawful residence counts towards the residency period, it's not dependent on visa type.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.
