technically u can enter UK in 6 months from your visa issuance date but u should have entered UK with in 28days of ur visa issuance date caus that would have helped you have 1 month of holiday and travel out of the country each year as u shouldnt be away for more than 180days witin the 5year period before your ILR application.rawpan wrote:Hi All,
I have been granted a Tier-1 General Visa for UK from BHC, New Delhi. My Visa is valid from July, 2008 - July, 2011. I am in India right now & looking for a suitable job in UK.

BTW these rules are not valid anymore and are 3years oldarunbast wrote:Hi,
For the old HSMP system it was 6 months for entry and they you need to show employment and stability within the first 12 months. Only then could you apply for extension of HSMP visa.
But am not sure if the same rules apply for Tier 1 General migrant visa also.

Thank you very much!! That helped alot!!uktier1234 wrote:you can have total of 180days of holidays within the 5yr period before you apply for ILR. another condition is that u shouldnt be out of UK for more than 90days at one go. you need to satisfy both at the time of ILR. one can enter UK at anytime during the 3year period of visa issued to you AFAIK there will be no problems in entering the country the only issue will be during the ILR
Hope this helps!!
