Long residence ILR - Break of continuous residence

Post by Pache76 » Tue May 10, 2011 11:33 pm

Hello

Can someone please advise me on this as I keep getting conflicting information all over the place.

I'd like to know what is the maximum amount of time can you spend out of the UK, which would not be classed as a break of your continuous leave.

I've been here for 8.5 years and missing 1.5 years to make the 10 years for long residence but I'd like to go on holiday and come back.

Any help would be great. Thanks

I would like to know where does in the law it is mentioned that days of arrival and departure from the UK while traveling shall not be calculated as days of absence from the UK.
in their guidelines there is a a mention of 18 month and each month considered as 30 days.

Hello
I would be very grateful if you answer my question, I am here in the UK since 10.10. 2006 as student under t4 visa. I applied to one of my visa extensions in the 28 days overstay period. My visa was expiring on 30 Oct 2015 due to problem in my bank statement. I submitted my application on 10th November 2015. Are these 10 days considered as gap in the visa or break?

Is this your thread?

Please start your own as it is rude to hijack others' threads and also very confusing for the perennially befuddled such as myself.

If you are subsequent granted leave it will have no effect, as you applied 10 days after your leave expired . That was indeed under 28 days.
