Eligibility Residential requirements query

[philmx0a]

Hi,
I would like to apply for neutralization for my wife along with myself. We will be applying thru Nationality Checking Service on 27th Aug 2013.

My wife has been away (out of UK) in the last 5 years. The total number of days is however less that 450 in last 5 years.

Based on the below data can you please advise if we can make the application on 27th Aug'13. She was not in UK in 28-Aug-2008 but was here before that.

Start Date in UK: 01-Dec-2007
ILR Date: 25-Aug-2012

Start Returned Days Reason
31-May-08 15-Aug-09 440 Child Birth Break
10-Feb-12 03-Mar-12 21 Holiday
31-Mar-13 19-Apr-13 18 Holiday

Thanks.

Philmx0a,

Nope. she should have been physically present 5 years before the day on which you are applying. In this case work backwards from 27th August 2013 and you will see that she has been out for most of the days in 2008 (the critical year). Her application will be ''Neutralized''

cheers
