SET(P) - residency requirement?
Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2018 1:13 pm
Is there a residency requirement for obtaining ILR through Settlement - Protection route: SET(P) form?
If one has used their travel document and in large part of their 5-year refugee leave they stayed abroad, would that affect their settlement application?
One can stay in certain (mostly European) countries visa-free up to 3 months or in others with Visa using their Convention Travel document.
The example in question has never been continuously out of the UK for more than 3 months (questions 2.5 - 4.13), however in one year stayed 8/12 months in 3 different European countries and in another 6/12 months, returning to UK or travelling through UK between absences.
Would the absences affect the application?
Should that be declared anywhere (there is no such express provision in the form SET(P))?
