Thanks for your reply. Please find the details below:CR001 wrote:It will be easier if you list your absence per 12 month cycle. So if you think you qualify for ILR on say, 1 April, count backwards for each 12 month period and list your absences.
This will be your problem. There is no discretion for absence, the 180 days allowance includes ALL absences.30th March 2015 - 31st March 2014 - 190 days (out of which 45 days sickness leave - was paid SSP by the employer in the UK)

Thanks for sharing your views. Much appreciated. I am not sure whether we are allowed to shared names of solicitors etc. within this forum, however I would take a chance by asking. Are you aware of any solicitors (may be Ex case forkers) who have successflly dealt with such cases?IndianConsult wrote:Hello,
I am also in similar (actually worse) situation as I have long absences due to my wife's treatment in India. Sr. Case worker are empowered to make discretion for absences exceeding 180 days on compelling and compassionate grounds. As this is discretion, there are not set rules about it.
I am planning to go via an agent/solicitor who is experienced in such cases. I heard that Croydon office has Sr. Case Workers who are authorised to make such decisions for applications made in in-person.
To be honest, I think your case should go through as it has exceeded only by 10 days. You can pm me if you want to exchange notes.
Best of luck . . .
