So I see that I can apply for ILR after 3 years for Exceptional Talent.
However, I also see that once the visa expires, you need to extend, and prove that you earned money in your field (odd requirement but ok).
If I pay for 3 years, is there a possibility I will technically have to extend my visa while applying for ILR? If so, just pay for 4 years? Since I have to wait 3 years before applying for ILR, but my visa would then be expired at the end of year 3.
Option 1: Pay for 3 years, save the money. Apply for ILR in the thir
Option 2: Pay for 4 years, less potential headache
What did everyone else decide?
