Cheers mate, have just emailed them. What did they reply to your query? They responded, stating that my ILR residence period would begin from the WP date of entry. I just thought I'd share this information as I today received a response to the query I sent to the SettlementPolicyOps Team subsequent...
Cheers mate, have just emailed them. What did they reply to your query? cs95tdg - I read that post earlier and a number of others, almost all focus (may be rightly) on visas which expire before the 5 year period. This case which is very similar to mine which involves WP->T1->T1 extension hence there...
PsTier1 - I have seen nothing in the policy guidance contrary to this, hence I personally think your 5 year period starts from 18/02/2008. cs95tdg - I read that post earlier and a number of others, almost all focus (may be rightly) on visas which expire before the 5 year period.

I am sure this will be relevant to a large number of users esp folks who are working in the UK on behalf of Indian IT companies and were sent back to work to their home office for certain periods during 5 years. Though these folks were away for reasons related to work, they would be paid in INR and ...
I think a lot of folks on here are in the same boat. I wonder if its covered elsewhere. What if your UK employment is secondment and you are sent back to the home office albeit for a small period?
