Post global promise visa ILR

Hey All, i was wondering that if I get a global promise visa. is it simple to get ILR after that?

Because the visa duration is 5 years and we can get ILR at 5 years do we need to get global promise again? and apply for ILR?
Or how does that work?

FOr global talent its simpler because the visa duration is 5 years and I can get ILR in 3 years so I have 2 years to sort out ILR . global promise is confusing for me.

Hi @Sharma.shray

You will be eligible to apply for ILR in 3 years on Talent Route and in 5 years on Promise Route.

Getting the ILR itself needs you to meet certain other ILR requirements as well example the continuous residence.

The GTV only makes you “eligible” to apply in a certain timeframe as per the Route you get endorsed in.

When you apply for stage 2, you will have the option to choose the visa duration between 1 and 5 years on both routes.

Hey @pahuja ,

yes that i understand.

Case 1: I get endorsed for promise, I choose 5 year duration
I live in Uk for 5 years on that visa.
Now I am eligible for ilr but my GTV is finished . what do I need to do now?

Case 2:
I get endorsed for talent, I choose 5 years duration

I live in UK for 3 years , and apply for ILR can I get ILR after 3 years?
Do I still need to have continuous residence for 5 years?

Case 1: You either apply for ILR before your GTV expiry or extend your GTV
Case 2: If you meet the eligibility criteria for ILR in 3 years then yes you can apply and you need to have continuous residence for those 3 years.
