absence >90 days - what to do for ILR

[rajivbravo]

hi brandnew
I have spoken to my friend..and what he has suggested is that thrz nothing B&W and we are at mercy of Caseworker.... His caseworker even told him that don't consider it as a gap if your WP hasn't changed....
In any case you should get a letter from your company

I'll try my hand... once Life in uk is done.. i'll book an appointment.

And thanks Chetan ..you are doing a real great job...

Hi rajiv,
Mine is also similiar case, was away in India continuously for 5 months and i wasnt paid allowance in the UK ( we get Salary in India and allowance in the UK). I can get a letter from employer stating that 5 moths were due to business reasons. Your friends wh
o got ILR were of the same situation? Your response will be much appreciated. I have contacted some solicitors but they said they cannot gurantee but they can try.

Thanks rajiv,
so all i need is to take a letter from employer confirming that the 5 months absence was due to business purpose and try our luck in PEO in person? And ofcourse pary GOD!

Thanks again.

Yupps, that's what I am also doing. Remeber these are my personal opinion based on other's experience and not on any HO laid directives. Go ahead if you feel you should considering that. All d best.

good stuff rajiv,
Every time i read some thing on internet i get to know a new/confused thing. I didnt know that Life in the UK certificate is only valid after a week it has been issued!

I wish i get a nice and helpful caseworker when i apply!!
Any idea which PEO has high success rate for complicated cases(like yours or mine)?!

[rajivbravo]

How can u be that sure ... here is another quote from my friend..he got his appoint after 2 days...
Enjoy confusions.. but don't live with those

hmm interesting point...as of now no idea but yes you can ask for that information straight from HO...that advantage Freedom of Information gives you. You can use whatdotheyknow.com. Remeber you can ask info that is generic in nature and not case specific.

Yes. That's true. A close friend of mine has the same case. He was sent offshore for knowledge transfer. For his ILR company gave letter(similar to this) and it was accepted. Though I must mention here that he applied through solicitor.

I think there are some successful cases where the gap was more than 90 days ( continuous ) provided they have letter from employer confirming that that period was due to business reasons and doesnt matter whether or not they were paid in the uk. I dont know anybody in person but i read some stories in this forum.

Chetanojha,
Can you confim if my understanding above is correct to the best of your knowledge?

what will happen if absence is > 90 days and a person apply for ILR through postal application ?

If he rejected will he will be given FLR to complete 5 years ? and been told to apply ILR again after complete required timescale ?
Will he get ILR ?

What will happen ?

Guys, can someone help me with my query? My problem is that I decided to go to give birth in my home country, everything was arranged before I learnt about the 90 days rule.. First, I will be on an annual leave (paid by a UK employer) of 25 days followed by a paid maternity leave (by the same employer). Will this still cause me problems when I will apply for ILR upon the expiration of Tier 1 (the five year period will expire in 2014).

Supposedly, if I return to the UK after 120 or 130 days, is there a chance to extend the Tier 1 further (after 5 years are expired) in order to make up for the missed period? Or will the clock be reset indeed? If reset, can I still have a chance to obtain a FLR (up to 1/1.5 or 2 years) in order to qualify later? Or should I apply for a new visa and start the whole 5 year process again? I am really confused about all this stuff, if someone knows anything about this,can you please help?
