I had extended my vacation further and went on unpaid leave for period of 21 days. As I got married during that time, spent some time with family and friends.
Let me know whether extending your vacation will come under unpaid leave.
Hi Amit, Thanks for your reply. Although the rule states the following. WP holder should provide employer letter for absences related to work and annual leave. Tier1 holders are not required to provide any proof of absences. But in our cases, those annual leaves were taken during our term in WP. So ...

Hi, During 2008, I have been on unpaid leave where I went to India. Can I put this as holiday or vacation or will it come under unpaid leave. Now I am in Tier 1 whereas on 2008, I was in Work Permit.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Did you took the risk of not getting the employer letter or you decided it was not needed. What did you mention in your absence on the 90 days leave ?

For eg., If i apply in August 2012, my absences for 2008 is 90 days which is not continuous. DO i need t...
Hi, I have travelled extensively during 2008. As per the rules, it says that we should not exceed 180 days in a 12 month consectuive period.
