The qualifying period for ILR is 24 months living in UK
However, you are able to apply for ILR 28 days before the end of the qualifying period.

Just as an example if you began living in UK on 29 June 2010, then your 24 months qualifying period would be 29 June 2012.
The earliest that your ILR application is allowed to be made is 28 days before 29 June 2012. So that would be 1st June 2012

I would suggest a review of the requirements for ILR so that you can begin preparations for some of the documentations that are required.
Some of these documents need to cover the 2 year period leading up to the date of application.

For an example of the form look here:-

For an example of the ILR guidance look here:-
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/settlement/guidesetm0420091.pdf

The granting of ILR allows access to public funds. The wording "No recourse to public funds" is no longer written in ILR holders' visas.
As a result, you would be able to claim job seekers allowances and other benefits which are usually available to UK citizens.

The current fee for ILR by Post = £972

The current fee for ILR in person = £1,350

Hope this info will help.

If you arrived to UK 20th of May 2010 then your 24 month qualifying period is 20th May 2012
You can apply ILR earliest 28 days before 20th May 2012 = 22nd April 2012
