    Defo get the ILR. Makes it far easier for you and if your company know you can move on elsewhere may make you more vauable to them.

    If they knew you could applly for the ilr in feb they may encourage you to do that. But would that be best fo you?

    But does it affect your payrate if they know they dont have to worry about the 7.02 rate?

    May help promotion prospects if they know your resident as well.

    2 of my filipino colleagues got their ILR a couple months ago, but things at work are the same (the only consolation they can get is they can work anywhere they want now) I am not into that £7.02 actually all I want is a security of staying here as much as I want.

    Yes, they know I am going to apply for ILR next year and they supporting my application I am really thinking the idea of extending my working visa or sponsorship visa atleast I am guaranteed of another 5 years just incase my ILR will get refused...I hope not My only prob is paying twice in doing it

    Thanks for the advice

    Of course i doubt it will change your life overnight but I would advise making it as easy for you to be employed as possible both in your current job and elsewhere.

    How sound is your company, is a working visa worth much if the company hits bad times? Five years is a long time.

    I ask as I am not very well up on the ins and outs of Working visas.

    Whatever you choose I hope it works out

    Our company are the 3rd largest health care in the country. What I mean of thinking of getting another 5 years sponsorship visa is just an assurance for me just incase I didn't get the ILR I can continue working here. The only downside for that is paying twice for the FLR and ILR. But I decided to go on with this sponsorship visa just to be safe then apply for the ILR after 2 months. Thanks for the advice.

    why wouldn't you get ILR ???

    how many days have you been outside the uk in the last 5 years ?

    should be straight forward for you to get, just check and double check you are eligible to apply when you do apply..
