Hi

I'm worried about my total 5 years duration time which is mandatory for ILR visa, cos i calculated my visa dates and found that i have been granted less than 5 years ( from starting date to expiry date ukba had issued me only for 4 years 11 months 13 days, 19 days shorter for 5 years duration ). now im confused what to do and whom to contact
or is it a normal situation

below are the dates

1st time visa granted on 12-AUG-2008 TO 24-JULY 2011
EXTENDED ON 20-JULY 2011 TO 24-JULY-2013

i calculted the days using http://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html
including the last day(24-july-2013)

please advice me

Thanks

I think you will be ok as long as you apply within 28 days from your 5th anniversary. It gives a very short window of about 9 days but i dont see an issue why it will not work.

Do you know why you were not granted the full term? Did your initial visa application accompany any time-specifying document?

i really dont know why they gave me lesser than 5 years
i just called ukba and the lady on other side of the phone asked me to write a letter to UkBA in sheffield and she said it might be an error.

and please reply me, does any faced this situation before or heard this kind of case

Thanks in advance

Search for 'Endorsement', 'Endorsement Error', 'Endorsement correction' here or in Google.. UKBA has a link on that.
