Shimil - Look at your wording first. The first post was not clear enough still I answered as much as possible in the legitimate limits. I am reproducing your post below - look at the statement in bold specifically. Please dont expect everyone to remember / know your background. In reply to that post you are making a statement which to a layman clearly shows your intent to explore whether it was possible to do wrong things without being caught.Shimil wrote:Basis and FromThere2Here

And even if they dont stamp your passport the computer system of Home Office keeps a record of your arrivals based on the immigration cards you fill and handover to the IO at port of entry.
Good luck.
I couldn't agree more with your scolding him about his plan to lie about time out of the country. It's wrong and it's stupid.
However, I'm curious about your statement that the HO keeps a computer record of our arrivals. Frankly, I doubt that's the case. Yes, we fill out the cards, but I can't imagine the HO spending money having scores of employees entering the data from the cards into a computer database. That would be a huge and costly task.
At any rate, good for you for slapping down this silly idea of cheating on a application. Cheating is the worst possible idea.
Why to ask such questions - if I had said 'yes' / 'no' what would you have done based on that? I really dont see any point - it is like asking if I have income in cash then will Inland revenue know about it? And if then you get a reply deserved for such questions then you must be ready to take them in stride.Shimil wrote:Hi basis
May be I am not clear in my question. Yes it is true that immigration officer stamp and keep record of entering but please note that they dont for departing as I have noticed. Immigration officer rarely stamp passport when leaving UK and also in France where I reside I dont get stamped each time I leave and enter, so I mean is it possible that I stay even longer than 90 days outside UK and claim that I was in UK based on my bills for residence and electricity.
At the same time I dont support the provocative language used by Fromtheretohere. my intent was not to slap anyone neither I am authorised to do so. As a senior member I am just following the rules of the board. The words 'slap down' etc , silly idea, cheating, stupid etc are not good - please observe restraint.
