i think you need to concentrate on getting the ILR stamp first on the passport orsort of confirmation from HO before any thing else.MPF wrote:Thanks again for your continued input SouthWest,
Timescale was... ILR granted in Feb 2000, travelled overseas from Oct 2005, returning to the UK at least once every year until early 2010. We have been settled here since then with house (Over four years) so obviously we always intended to return and remain here. Is there discretion in the rules? you wife may not satisfy residence requirement in this case. the five years counted back from the date HO receives the application. might ask for discretion if over 450 days. check residence requirement on the forum.
I was reading elsewhere in the forums that the only way ILR can be officially revoked is by a border official placing a stamp that confirms the person has entered in a different immigration class at point of entry. If this has never happened, can it still happen retrospectively as part of a naturalisation application? i think there are some sort of transition laws for EEA national who were in UK before their respective countries joined the EU and obviously your wife was using her Polish passport/ID to enter UK since 2004, so ILR stamp is out of question here. I am not an expert on this so can't really add a constructive comment.
Apologies if this discussion is drifting off-topic for the forum. I don't want to start another thread in ILR but if mods think it would be better off there, please move.
Thanks again for your considered opinion
