ILR application queries
Posted: Mon Aug 15, 2016 12:01 pm
Hi,
I came to UK on May 9, 2010 on Tier 2 (Intra Company transfer). On October 3, 2011, I got my Tier 1 (general) visa. On October 3, 2016, I will be completing 5 years on Tier 1 (general) visa and am applying for ILR.
1) In the form, it asks for the date of entry in UK and the absences then on. Do I have to furnish all the absences from the date of entry? Also, do I have to provide evidence of absences between May 9, 2010 and October 3, 2011?
2) In the final checks, one of the checks says:
For the period before you were granted leave as a Tier 1 (General) migrant, documents showing that you met the relevant requirements of the immigration rules. - Which documents should I show for this? Will the visa stamped on Passport suffice it?
Finally, while switching the jobs, there was a period of 2 months when I was in India visiting my family.
3) What reason do I mention for that absence and would a mention of it in the cover letter help as an evidence?
Please help me with the answers asap so that I can arrange the documents accordingly. Any help would be highly appreciated!
Thanks
