well you can apply for ILR in 2 years, unless the gov is forced into changing it from 5 years back to 4 years... or maybe they will change it again in march/april

oh who knows what the changes will be, oh i think it might effect all on work permits, maybe they will allow a transition period.. i hope your reading up on it lady
