hi guys,
I am thinkinf about applying for ILR and I am having few questions. I hope the experience of some of the people here will help me find answers. please bear with me for the long explanation.
I came on business visa in March 2003. Got converted to work permit in Aug 2003. Everything was fine until Jan 2006 when I went back to India to work at offshore of the same company. I then came back to UK in July 2006. I migrated to tier 1 in May 2008. Barring the gap of 6 months in 2006, I have stayed here in qualifying categories since aug 2003. Even though I know its not good to have 6 months, I am planning to get a letter from my employer and take the risk.
here are my questions:
1. In section 6.1 of the application, I am not sure what date to enter.
"When did you (the main applicant) first enter the UK? This refers to the date of your first entry into the UK at the beginning of the period of stay on which this application is based."
I obviously cant give it as march 2003 as I my first entry was on business visa and got converted to WP within country.
2. Is there a minimum balance that you need to maintain for main applicant and dependents as in Tier 1?
3. Since I have spent more than 7 years in UK will the number of absences still be limited to that of 5 year period?
I would appreciate any answers/suggestions.
Thanks
