There is no question in the application about WHY.uhd4k wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 3:08 amHi,
I am about to apply for my ILR based on Exceptional Talent Tier 1 visa. I do meet the rule of 180 days max outside the country per any rolling 12 months period. My question is: Do I have to provide evidence of WHY I left the country for all the flights I took? Most of my trips outside the country have been for 2 to 6 weeks, with me working remotely for a big chunk of it, and on annual leave for the rest. FYI, I am on a permanent contract.
Thanks for your help.
That was my understanding until I read the official document "Indefinite leave to remain: calculating continuous period in UK" (link below). In particular, the following sentence: "Evidence in the form of a letter from the employer which sets out the reasons for the absences, including annual leave, must be provided."
Letter from employer stating that all absences were approved will suffice.uhd4k wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 7:24 amThat was my understanding until I read the official document "Indefinite leave to remain: calculating continuous period in UK" (link below).

You did not read the guide properly !! It clearly says in the beginning that your route Global Talent (formerly Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent)) is NOT covered by this guideuhd4k wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 7:24 amThat was my understanding until I read the official document "Indefinite leave to remain: calculating continuous period in UK" (link below).

Thanks for your help.There is no employer letter
I see your point. The absence of 'Global Talent' in the list of routes the guide covers should mean it is (i.e. the guide) not relevant to my case.
