ILR - T2 General - Gap in National Insurance Contribution

Hi,

I'm currently on the Tier 2 (General) visa and pay the Taxes and National Insurance (NI) through PAYE. However, when I first came to the UK on a Tier 2 Dependant visa, I was unemployed for a few months which has created a Gap in my NI records.

Could the Moderators/Experts please advise if I need to pay the relevant amount to fill in this Gap in order to be eligible for ILR and would this affect my application?

Many Thanks.

your time as dependent is not counting in the time accured for ilr anyway.. so its irrelevant.

It is completely irrelevant to your ILR
