The Judicial reviews of these new rules in April 2008 and 6 April 2009 restored and granted those pre-April 2006 rights to one category (i.e HSMP holders) but not to the other (i.e work permit holders). It is inequitable to do so. Therefore in the interest of justice this inequality be ceased and both groups be treated equally giving effect to their legitimate expectations.

leave to remain was stamped in october 2004. leave to remain expired in july 2009.
if it had been 4 years to qualify, i would have had my ilr in oct 2008. but as it stands now, i had to apply under the points based system to extend my stay from july to october 2009 before i qualify for ilr. the cost implication is that, i had to pay 650 pounds for this extension. ie for myself and three dependants. I have to a lot of money again for ilr application. hmmmmmmm!
