Tier 2(G) + 3C leave for ILR
Posted: Mon May 30, 2016 2:39 pm
Hi All,
I am currently on Tier 2 visa eligible for ILR in July 2016 - at least this is what i think. I was made redundant end May 2014 while my Tier 2 general leave was valid till beginning of Aug 2014. In July 2014 I applied for Tier 1 (E) visa which was rejected in mid Aug 2014 and by then my Tier 2 visa had expired and 3C was enforced there by extending my previous leave i.e Tier 2 (G). While the appeal was in process and pending court hearing, I received a CoS from another employer and thereby withdrew my appeal and submitted an application for extending Tier 2 leave which was granted for the remaining of the allowed 6 years on T2 which is till the beginning of Aug 2017. I know i have not broken continuity of leave however i am not sure if my 6 months of unemployment could cause an issue for ILR.
Grateful if any of the gurus can provide their opinion on the above situation.
