SET(O) absence from UK whilst unemployed

[mep35]

Hi everyone

I have a Tier 1 (General) visa and I'm applying for ILR at a PEO in the next couple of months.

I was unemployed whilst on holiday in Finland and Russia from 21/12/2012 to 02/01/2013 so I have two questions:

1) What reason do I put for this in Q6.2?
2) What evidence can I provide for this (Q6.3)? Or is it enough for me just to say it was a holiday, and for them to look at my passport stamps?

Apologies if these questions have been answered somewhere else, but I couldn't see anything.

Thanks in advance

Hi Mep,

Just wanted to ask you did yo apply for your ILR and what was the outcome? and how did you handle this? I have similar situation, where i was outside country with no job in my 1st year of Tier 1 General. I am due to apply for ILR in September, so would really appreciate your help.

best Regards,
