Lime, have you already passed your Life in UK test?
How long MUST you stay in Phils?
Being granted ILR will have a major positive impact in many ways, it would be a real shame to let the opportunity pass by.
Perhaps you have some chance to prioritise and at least apply for ILR.
Maybe even consider applying by personal appearance 28 days before the end of your 24 months qualifying period. It does cost quite a bit more, but if your application is straightforward the decision would be made on that same day.
Food for thought.
