Long residence actually requires you to have had 10 years of lawful continuous residence at any time in the past, so if you lived here for 11 years your initial date of entry becomes irrelevant. The advice is 99% of the times targetted at people who want to apply for long residence at the earliest possible time which means they often should consider their date of entry to the UKomarmansour wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 12:05 pmThank you. it seems there are different rules in calculating this based on the route you are applying thru. Few more works won't hurt!
28days prior to completing 10 years will give 9th December 2021 as you wrote above. For absolute assurance or certainty you may make it from 10th December 2021.omarmansour wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 6:41 pmMany thanks for this- makes sense now! So something I forgot to ask, how are those 28 days calculated? So my 10th anniversary will be 6 January 2022, would that I mean I can apply on the 9th December? Or the arrival date doesn’t count? Thanks
It is your date of application submission online that is referred to not biometrics appointment day. Travelling after submission as said numerous times equates to application withdrawal ⁷omarmansour wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 1:38 pmAnother follow up question please: I am seeing lots of applicants mentioning how hard is it go get a super priority slot. Now, if I reach the stage in my online application where I have to pay and choose the standard service. If I decide to wait and keep checking if any slots are released, can I travel outside the UK during this period? If I have submitted but not paid, would that be considered an application currently with the home office? Thanks
Not until you pay your application is not considered submitted and you won't get the chance to check for appointments till you have done that.omarmansour wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 10:54 pmThanks- yes I am aware that if I fully submit the application, then It is now with the HO. I was just wondering to whether filling the form and completing it until the superpriority service availability stage and not paying the £2500+ fee would constitute as a submission or not...
No need to take the risk anyways...

Correct yes.omarmansour wrote: ↑Sun Oct 31, 2021 4:21 pmThank you very much Zimba, so just to double check. If I reach the payment stage and I don't find the superpriority fee, and I choose not to pay for the standard service at that moment, and leave it be for a few days, application won't be considered and I can still travel outside the UK freely (current T2 leave expires September 2022) ? Correct?
Your son has an entitlement to be registered as British (children do NOT get naturalised) ONLY if he was born in the UK otherwise he will follow the same immigration path as your wife. Travel with a dependant visa is NOT recommended at all after your sponsor has been granted ILR under the long residence.omarmansour wrote: ↑Mon Nov 22, 2021 12:25 pmAnother question sorry !
If my wife gets her FLR (M) after my ILR based on LR. What happens to my son who is my dependent right now (Tier 2)? I believe he can apply for naturalisation right after my ILR? While he is waiting the 6 months period to hear back, can he travel outside the UK with his T2 dependent visa?
