Limited Leave to Remain is granted by application. Once you reach the end of the time permitted by the visa, you must either leave the country or apply for an extension. Renewal is generally required every 30 months.
Limited leave usually means that access to benefits such as payments and healthcare is prohibited, referred to as limited leave to remain with no recourse to public funds. In exceptional circumstances, the Home Office may remove this restriction, but usually you are expected to support yourself and any dependants without help. Other restrictions may also be imposed, for example in respect of work or study.
The Secretary of State for the Home Office has the power to grant someone Discretionary Leave to Remain. This is given on compassionate grounds and in exceptional circumstances only.
Application must be made from within the UK.
Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), also known as settlement or permanent residence, gives the holder the right to live and work in the UK without time limit, provided they do not commit a serious criminal offence.
The holder is also usually entitled to access public funds, such as housing and social benefits, and may use the NHS.
