You might also need a police report as per the loss of your passport.Taikuo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 30, 2018 10:58 amHi
Anyone could help me out, thank you very much
I came in the UK in Oct 2008. Almost 10 years now, trying to plan and apply ILR (LR), I have read a lot of the post here, and it has been so helpfull.
My question is that
1. 10 years on Tier 4 student visa is ok to apply for ILR(LR) right?
2. I lost one of my old passport, which is worth of 5 years of travel stamps from 2008-2013, luckily I have calucated all my days before i lost it, as I knew that I don't have many days left, so the last 2/3 years I have't left the UK much, apart from few weekend trips. I am confident that I haven't left the country for more than 540 days and no more than 180 days for any trip. But how would I prove it the HO, I can try get all the flight tickets, proof from the school that I have been in school for every term every year, Try get my information from Immigration office (but they only have the last 5 years isn't it). Doctors appoinments, these are the one that I can think of.
Thank you very much
Richard
A friend of mine was in this situation, the first and foremost thing they did was, draft out a chronology of events in a cover letter so that you can provide this alongside your application.Taikuo wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 8:26 pmHi

(1) you can include information such as the visa extensions you have done, the times they were granted for, from the date of entry to the UK till the day of your ILR application.
(2) you can also try to check your emails for any proof of your travels (such as tickets and bookings etc) for the entire period of your stay in the UK and include this with the cover letter with description of days outside the country etc
(3) you should also get proof of the your passport being reported lost and the evidence (or some of sort of evidence) and the issue of the new passport
(4) write to home office and get a SAR, it may cost you a small fee, which may give you the entry and exits of the airports, sometimes it may not
(5) you can also get a some evidence from your academic institutions to show the stretch of the what you have been doing etc and proof of your stay ( your gp may also be able to provide a letter, if you have been registered with them till date)
(6) bank statements for the entire period of missing passport can also help you too, in tracking down the days and as proof of subtle evidence
try to get your information in the covering letter, in a presentable manner but don't write a 10 page cover letter
Hope this helps and good luck
