All you need is the letter of absence from your employer confirming all your absences if you are on Tier 2. You can also add a cover letter for personal explanation in some instances (if required). Since you will be submitting your original passport, the caseworker could check your passport to see when you were stamped in and out of the UK.

The immigration officer in the countries you have visited should stamp you in just as a border agent should stamp your passport whenever you enter UK. This could be used to determine the number of days you were out of the country. You also complete a landing card every time you enter the country. It is also possible that UKVI has access to some other database that they use to track entry and exit. If you know the number of days you were out for, just put them a tabulated format showing dates and purpose. UKVI will do their job in assessing it. I don't think you should worry so much about how UKVI does the job, yours is to provide the information they require.sm12 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 09, 2018 10:11 pmThank you for your reply.Djsuccess wrote: ↑Sat Jun 09, 2018 10:00 pmAll you need is the letter of absence from your employer confirming all your absences if you are on Tier 2.

Actually, I've applied on the basis of tier 1 entrepreneur, so no employer's letter required. However, there are no exit stamps here and my SAR has no information on it, so just wondering how HO confirms your actual number of days out of the country and why API is not on SAR. That would actually clearly show that applicants meet the requirement.

for Basic SAR
"You will receive a response within 20 days of your identity being verified by the Home Office.
You can request a copy of:
an electronic summary of your immigration history
landing cards we hold electronically
an electronic summary of entry clearance records
Workers Registration Scheme (WRS) information
entry and exit records for the past 5 years
Most people find that this option gives them all the information they need."
Maybe you should have specifically requested entry and exit records if that's what you wanted. But I thought that a basic SAR should include that.
