Helpful tools
Standalone utilities — useful even if you're not running the full calculator.
UK days calculator — count your absences and check the 180-day rule →We don't ask for your name, email, passport, sponsor, or anything that could identify you. Closing the tab discards everything.
Every rule has a source URL on gov.uk. Verify the rules independently — they're not our interpretation, they're the published Home Office requirements.
No accounts, no paywalls, no upgrades for the readiness check. Optional paid features (designed PDF Application Pack) coming later — never email-based.
Don't trust us — verify it
Open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and use the calculator. You'll see no answer payloads sent — only static page and asset loads. The privacy claim is verifiable, not just promised.
Bookmark it for the year you apply.
Most ILR routes need 3–10 years of qualifying residence. If you're still in the middle of yours, the calculator is more useful 6–12 months before you apply — when there's still time to fix gaps in absences, salary, or English.
