As you can see the 28 days requirement ONLY applies if you had no valid leave/visa when you left the UK. This is why in 2019 I asked you if you had a valid visa when you left the UK. If you had a visa, you can return within 6 months with any other visa and your continuous residence remains intact.Events that break continuous residence
Continuous residence is considered to be broken if the applicant has:
• been absent from the UK for a period of more than 6 months at any one time
• spent a total of 18 months outside the UK throughout the whole 10 year period
• left the UK before 24 November 2016 with no valid leave to remain on their departure from the UK, and failed to apply for entry clearance within 28 days of their previous leave expiring (even if they returned to the UK within 6 months)
