Happy to inform you guys that my ILR application at PEO Croydon on 14th March 2015 was accepted !! I have now been granted ILR. PEO: Croydon Date: 14 Mar 2015 Total Duration in PEO: 3 hrs.

Yes I was working in India during the long absence - however I was transferred to the parent company in UK at a later date. Also I am breaking the long absence in 2 duration of <180 days. Why would my residency requirements be broken ?

Thanks,

Hi, Since you have one long absence of more than 180 days, your continuous period is reset. For continuous period, you have to meet two things: 1) No single absence of 180 days or more 2) No more than 180 days absence during each of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years before application. If your absence was mad...

5 15-Mar-2011 16-Mar-2010 110 Days

Do I still need to produce a letter to explain my absence ?

Thanks,

Hi All - A simple query here ---

If due to any reason my in person PEO application for TIER 1 extension is rejected - can I then correct the reason & re-submit the application by post ? Is this allowed - of course before my current visa time expires ?

Thanks - appreciate a response !

Can someone please advise asap ???

I have same question:

This is my first extension.

I came to UK on Tier 2 & switched to TIER 1.

So in this case I should be giving TIER 2 details right ?

While filling up the TIER 1 Extension form ... Section: D. Immigration History Page: 20 one of the sections asks for details of visa obtained before coming to UK. In my case it was a TIER 2 visa & than TIER 1 ... So I am guessing I have to fill in my T2 details here ... Also Section:C6 Page:17 P...

I have noticed that my first 4 payslips are not original I have printed them on a normal paper (NOT a company headed one). Payslip does bear my company name (very small on top left corner) but I have them all stamped & signed by HR - is that OK ? PLEASE respond asap ..... would really appreciate !

So what happens in such cases ?

Do they take all your documents, forms etc & says we will get back to you ?

Please can you advise ?

D2. Where did the applicant obtain entry clearance or a visa before travelling to the United Kingdom?

I was on Tier 2 when I entered in UK... I presume the details asked are for Tier 1 ? Please help !
