I'm on a Tier 1 General Migrant Visa which expires on 20 May 2011. There are two things which I need to ask:-
1) My wife is 21 weeks pregnant. I was reading this stuff on Heath in Pregnancy Grant £190. Is this a benefit? If we claim this grant, will this affect our application for our extension. Also, can she claim Statutory Maternity Pay from her employer? Not Sure
2) I went on a holiday to India on 15 August 2008 and came back on 11th Feb 2009. This makes 180 days in total. Will it affect my application for Tier 1 extension or for ILR? Will not affect Tier 1 application
Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards
Deepak
Will not affect your Tier 1 extension application but has effectively reset your ILR clock - because you cannot be outside UK for more than 90 days at one time (barring work related absences supported by documentary evidence).dkalra1981 wrote:I went on a holiday to India on 15 August 2008 and came back on 11th Feb 2009.
