My wife received ILE in Moscow 2 years ago. However, the expiry date on the visa and the expiry date on her passport don't correspond. (Her visa expired in may, and her passport expires in 2011).
She took a trip to Switzerland last week and on her way back into the UK the immigration officer told her that her visa had expired (no shit, Sherlock!). The IO seemed confused but let her back in and told her to contact the home office.
Does anyone have any ideas regarding my wife's legal position?
It seems to me that ILE means she can stay in the UK as long as she wants. The mistake (if there is one) is on the part of the consulate in Moscow who issued the visa.
Thanks for any feedback on this.
