am i a UK resident?

[lexy]

i need to buy travel insurance online that requires me to be a full time UK resident


i am south african and have been in the uk for one year on a working holiday makers visa.#


is 'full time resident' something official, or does it just mean that i live in the UK?

i can't find anywhere else to answer this


thank you

EDIT: found the answer, turns out i am, as i have been here for more than six months

I used to be a travel insurance sales consultant. The reason why they ask if you a UK resident is to identify port of return if repatriation is required for unforeseen circumstances. You can safely say that are a UK resident but bare in mind if anything should go wrong whilst you are on holiday they will only repatriate you back to the UK and not to south africa.
