I'm sure that your 2 years probationary period starts from the day you enter into the UK.

Not quit sure, but I think you can apply when you have completed the 2 years period provided you meet other requirements as well.

Hello Everybody, 

can anybody help me for advice.

Now, i have a uk spouse visa and next year i am planning to apply for ILR. but mean time visa rule was change,then after rule changed, i am not sure ,i am eligible for ILR or Not? 

i was apply for spouse visa on 30/11/2011,then after long processing time i got visa on 07/08/2012 and arrived on uk 11th october 2012.visa duration is 2 years 3 months, which is expire on 07/11/2014. Now i have fulltime job. I am not sure i am eligible for under the old rule, can anybody help me ,i am eligible for old rule or should to flow new rule,thanks to everybody for your advice.

Yor visa was granted under the old rules, and you will apply for ILR under old rules, hence no requirement to meet miniumum £ 18600 yearly income.

You will however need to meet new KoLL requirement introduced from 28th October 2013.

Pass Life in the UK test.

Show or pass a B1 cefr level qualification in english speaking and listening.

You can apply for ILR on or after 13th September 2014, but you must make sure it is before your current visa expires.

at moment i have only 4 utilities bills as follows:

1. banks statement 

2.Electricity bill

3.land line telephone & broadband internet bill

4.water bill

Hi could you advice me,

currently i have full time job but this job is not my field related. Now i got 1 job that is my filed related but this new job part time and i have 2 option ,one is 2 side part time jobs or other side is just continue its current job, problem is i am applying ILR on after sept 2014, Does 2 side part times jobs effects on my Visa process Or for ILR visa they need full time jobs? 

 You can have one job, two jobs, three jobs or one million jobs, part time, full time, agency, random, casual or something else,  it does not make a difference.

You  are under the old rule. So you can go a head and apply for ILR. You will need to pass the Life in the UK test and also take a speaking and listening test in English.
