SoC - Country of Residence - Mistake?

Post by AliJaf » Sun Aug 13, 2023 1:44 am

Hi,

For renewal my SWV employer has given me a draft CoS (to check details for accuracy of my details) prior to submission which states my "Country of Residence" same as my Nationality.

This is a renewal CoS (undefined) and since I am in the UK for the last 2 years and do not intend to leave UK for renewal, shouldn't the country of Residence be United Kingdom? Although I may not have Permanent Residence in the UK, technically I am a Resident, can someone guide me on UKVI interprets it, this seems like a silly data entry error, or is it not? please assist

Hi AliJaf,

The country of residence refers to the country you are currently living in. So if you're living in the UK, then this should state UK.
