Hey Guys, finally got my BRP! Type of permit: Settlement Remarks: No time limit So does this mean I can travel back to the Philippines for a few months and come back with no problem? is the limitation on this the same as the indefinite leave to remain visa where i just have to ensure that i don't ...

"I assume your latest entry stamp has the Returning resident visa number written next to it. Or else, it would be in the immigration records. Either one should be evidence enough of the continuing ILR status." All i have is the passport No. EC7XXXXXX and the VAF No. xxxxxxxv (7 digits ) which one is ...

Are you sure you didn't get a letter back with your passport stating you had to collect a BRP card from your designated Post Office within 10 days of arriving back? No I didn't get any letter, it seems that these mistakes were the most complicated part of trying to figure out what to do when the ...

This is the letter from the Home Office: "Date: 03/July 2014 Dear Mr... I write with regards to your letter of 21/06/2015. As you were outside of the United Kingdom for a period of more than two years, as noted from your previous no time limit application. You are deemed to have lost your settled ...

Hi, thanks for the speedy reply and yes I am definite I have a returning resident visa as it states " Type: Returning Resident" as shown in the pic below: https://image.ibb.co/d4dL0F/visa.jpg As for the part on how I managed to get back to the UK the first time.. yes that was the VERY confusing part ...

Thanks for the replies guys, really appreciate it. As for your question.... No I do not have a BRP (Biometric residence permits). To cut a long story short.. 4 years ago I applied for a BRP to transfer my indefinite leave to remain visa to my new passport but was declined for over staying in the ...

same rights... so to be super clear.. basically with this Resident Return visa my ILR has been automatically reinstated?

Hi, thanks for the quick reply... ok... so now i have this Returning resident visa stamp that lets me stay in the UK for an indefinite period.. what's next... can i still go back to the Philippines for a 3 weeks holiday or doi have to stay in the UK for a long time.. and by having this new visa ...

Hi, I'm from the Philippines. I lost my ILR ( Indefinite leave to remain VISA) due to staying in the Philippines for over two years. I was granted a Returning Resident visa to get back to the UK (also stamped next to visa is the word "work permit" so now I'm working in the UK) . I'm currently now ...

ok thx for your help. Very much appreciated I am currently in the process of requesting any personal data that they may hold about me e.g. landing card and border agency records.

Its been 3 years now, I no longer have my landing card.The immigration officer gave me a normal entry stamp with nothing else included. I'm going to get in touch with immigration and ask them for evidence regarding their decision to let me back in the country.

Yes the immigration from looking at my visa stamps alone established that I've been away from the UK for more than 2 years. When I applied for my indefinite leave to remain visa to be transferred into my new passport they asked me why there were gaps in my proof of continuous residency between 210 ...

I am currently in the United Kingdom. I applied for my transfer of my indefinite leave to remain visa to my new passport here in the UK and was refused on the basis of over staying. Written in one of the letter was that any decision made cannot be appealed. Taking into account that I've been in this ...

The immigration officer at the airport just let me in with a normal entry stamp. He then added that my indefinite leave to remain will remain intact as long I don't go back again to the philippines within 9 months which is the incorrect procedure to follow. I got my LDR to join my mother here in the ...

I mean to say, I want to apply for the returning resident visa. The Indefinite Leave To ENTER not indefinite leave to remain. They advised me to apply outside the uk then once u are in the uk and lived here for over 2 years u can then apply for the indefinite leave to remain. I'm just afraid that ...

Hi, I' have been in the country for 15 years, and have an "Indefinite Leave to Remain" stamp on my old passport. Couple of years ago, I left the UK and stayed in the Philippines for 2 years and 2 days, not realising there was a 2 years time limit to stay away from UK before my ILR status is ...
