Looking for your response.

Yes. This is because if you applied in-time (before visa expiry) for extension of leave and then you got a refusal and later the decision of the Secretary of State on your application (which was extended by Section 3C) was subsequently quashed or declared unlawful following judicial review proceedings, you should assume that the refusal decision is void and never had an effect. As a result, Section 3C leave never came to an end until you were granted leave.

Dear Admin,

Can you please let me know about the gap period i wasn't allow to work, is it still okay can apply for ILR?

Thanks
Anas

The gap should not be an issue
