You would need to list ALL his visa categories, approvals, refusals, and appeal dates exactly if you expect any useful advice from strangers on an internet forum.

Who exactly is 'asking' for his papers and passports etc??

What is your immigration status in the UK??

Hello.

i am eligible to Apply for ILR on 10 years route, before i apply i have few questions.

came to UK in OCT 2007.

23 Aug 2013 i applied for student visa extension which was refused in Nov 2013 due to relying on 3rd party funds to support education went on appeal which continued from lower tribunal to upper tribunal up untill 1st week of Feb 2015. i was offered job on tier 2. withdrew the appeal pending appeal and applied for Tier2 which was approved. got my tier2 extended last year jan 18 with same employer.

my question is how the appeal period would be considered? have i broken continuity?

should i apply for ILR or wait until next year go via tier 2 towards ILR.

Thank you all in advance waiting for expert opinions.

Best Regards.

You are eligible under long residence as the period of appeal comes under section 3C. Overstaying period for before the Tier 2 visa will be disregarded
