This application must adhere to the guidelines outlined in Appendix Private Life of the Immigration Rules.

The very significant obstacles to integration route provide a pathway to settlement, allowing the applicant to potentially secure Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) after 10 years of lawful residence in the UK under this route.

Before this period expires, the applicant must apply for an extension of leave to remain until they have completed the 10-year residency requirement to qualify for ILR.
