Hi,

I am new to this forum.

I am planning for my ILR soon. Here are the details regarding my absences

1.18/06/2011 to 03/07/2011 15 Days
2. 02/03/2012 to 29/03/2012 27 days
3. 01/11/2013 to 25/11/2013 24 Days
4. 01/03/2014 to 25/03/2014 24 Days
5.16/05/2012 to 28/01/2013 8 months 12 days

During this 8 months my employer transfered my payroll to India.But for these 5 years I am in the same Tier2 General visa.
I came to UK on 18th June 2010. My visa was issued on 8th June 2010 in India.

Can some one suggest me that

1.Am I eligible for ILR?
2. If so when exactly that I can go for ILR? Please suggest me the date.

Thanks in Advance
Naga

If you apply on the 30th of September 2016, you will be able to split your absences
Your continuous period will be calculated like this

Year 1 30-Sep-16 29-Sep-15 In future
Year 2 30-Sep-15 29-Sep-14 0
Year 3 30-Sep-14 29-Sep-13 24 days + 24 days
Year 4 30-Sep-13 29-Sep-12 120 days of long absence
Year 5 30-Sep-12 29-Sep-11 27 days + 137 days of long absence

Going by this calculation, you should be Ok..

Will leave this upto the Gurus and seniors to comment further.

Cheers
