Subsequent renewals on temp visa (VLS TS)

Its that time of year again when we have to renew our visa… I really hope its not just me that finds it so painful… The fault is with me I should add… finding documents on my computer, wrong format, too big, not clear… etc etc… But… This is where we currently are and I am hoping somebody can help me with clarification on the future… I should say from the off… we are a retired couple, not working, own income etc etc…

We had a one year VLS TS (October 22), then first year visa granted in Oct 23, second year visa October 24… Now just doing this years… This is my question… I was told Initially that you have three 1 year spells, and then a two year visa and then you can have the 10 year permit… (providing I dont do anything stupid and break the law… I came very close at the till checkout this morning at Lidl when somebody tried to push in!!! I am blaming the heat!!). So… when I have successfully submitted this years… is it likely to come back valid for two years… praying so…

Thanks to all out there that take the trouble to answer my random questions…
Jane…
