Hi
You dont need any other form but the ILR form. Just a cover letter explaining all the situation that you have applied for Tier 1 Ent and outcome is still pending (Include your Tier 1 ent application reference number) Now I have completed 10 yrs and would like to vary my application from Tier 1 Ent to ILR. Pay full ILR fee but you will get your Tier 1 application fee back by cheque.
Mistakes are the portals of discovery.
Please correct me if am wrong

You Need to fill the following form (also check guidance)

form SET(LR) : https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... _04-14.pdf
SET(LR) guidance notes : https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... _04-14.pdf
Eligibility : https://www.gov.uk/long-residence/eligibility
Documents You need to Provide : https://www.gov.uk/long-residence/docum ... st-provide

Also go through Long Residence & Private Life Guidance : https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... e-life.pdf

Make sure you apply for your ILR before HO refuse you (in worst case scenario). Also give Life in the UK and English Test (or use your UK Degree to claim points for English Language Skills) as soon as possible. If you are not sure what to do or how to do all these things, hire a solicitor!
