It will be very thankful if anyone can clear my doubts,
I like to apply for Long Term Residency and I completed 6 months on my stamp 4 work permit visa my Visa will expire on april. My question is when I apply for LTR should I have a valid visa for certain months (6 months).
many thanks,

matthewmatthew,
Ideally, you should have a permit at any point during your stay in this country
If you make the application NOW, you may be lucky to get approval letter before then and so will not need to renew your permit again in April before you get you LTR. But if what I think is what they do, then they will probably wait till you have spent the extra 150euro and then send you your LTR to go and pay another 500euro.
But generally, I will assume that you may be able to get it before your renewal is due - hopefully.
All the best
