Any advice? Thanks!

I am due for citizenship naturalisation in July 2009 (4 years HSMP + 1 ILR), however, I applied the british passport for my baby 09/2008 when she was not in UK. She was registered as British Citizen after I got ILR, then I sent her back to my home country. I did not know that I should apply for her ...

My total absence is 260 days, out of which 160 days was paid leave. That would leave 100 days overseas. However, HO rejected my application saying that I was overseas for 236 days. I thought HO considered my recent pay leave of February 2008 where I was outside the country. I had submitted my paysl...

Hello there, My recent application for ILR has been declined as the HO said that I had been out of the UK for 236 days in the past 5 years. However, out of the exact 260 days, 160 days have been on paid leaves and they only considered 24 days (off the last 6 months pay slips that I had submitted wi...

RAJ2007, But in treal20's case, he cannot yet register his child as a British Citizen, as the child was born (in UK) before treal20 had acquired ILR. Unless of course treal20 is at this stage just asking for genaral information on referees, I think he/she cannot register the child as a BC, until af...

It was just a straightforward letter from my employer setting out all the dates that I have been out of...

Hi, Victoria, do you mean that 225 days allowable absence is widely know? In this forum, it seems everybody tries to emphasize absence not exceeding 6 months according to Annex F

[quote="rajeshbhanu"]Dear All, 1) According to an immigration consultant who contacted a Senior Caseworker in the Home Office, the allowable absences over a 5-year period for Indefinite Leave to Remain are 225 days or 45 days "on average" per year. That is exactly 6 months (180 d...

Not to exceed 180 days out of the UK in 5 years if you want your application to be decided on the same day. Could be slightly more if there was a need for you to travel under your work arangements. Significant time spent in the UK (in the case of my recent client, 300 days) has resulted in teh appl...
