Leaves during the Tier 1 49days (not in employment) no evidence.

Congratulations. Agree with you totally , regarding providing more documents. Applicants tend to provide more than what is asked for,assuming that it will make their case stronger.

Which option did you click from below please for absence:

6.3 What evidence has been provided to support the reasons for all absences from the UK?
- Letter(s) from employer(s) detailing reasons for work-related absences including periods of paid annual leave from the UK?
- Letter from applicant detailing reasons for absence due to compelling or compassionate reasons
- Original official documents: (medical/birth/death certificate(s))
- Letter from travel companies to evidence disruption to travel
- Other

No evidence means no letter from employers but Do submit your own explanation letter stating the reasons of absences.

Nothing just left it as blank as those options doesn't apply for personal leaves. as long as its less then 90days in one go and less then 180 days in 12months, then they are not much fussed.

congratulations.....one doubt please... you said you submitted the self signed absence letter for personal leaves. Were these leaves paid annual leaves? Please advise me what I should do..I was away from the country for 45 days in past 5 years ....all those were family visits and I took annual leaves... I was paid by employer during those leaves but employer is not ready to give letter....should I submit self written letter or there is no need to submit any letter

Couldn't agree more.
I've always belived that more extra docs you put the more complex you make it for caseworker to deal with.

I am planning to go for ILR in July 2013, I have been out side UK for 146days (all holidays in one go between 2008 to 2009) will it be an issue for my ILR application.

Congrats mate!!

Did you use the new form (from 06h April 2013) or the old form?
