Hi Guys,

I am a ILR holder.

Will I have any issues if I will be absent from the UK for 1 month? My company wants to send me to our headquarters in the US to attend company training, etc.

Also, If I travel to EU or US once in a while (like for 1-2 weeks every 3-4 months) for business purposes as required by my employer, will I have any issues with my ILR or future naturalisation?

Could you please confirm that when it says "ILR will lapse if the holder was absent for more than 2 years" it means that if the holder will be absent for 2 years in one go? Thanks.

Yes, 2 years in one go.

Short trips out of the UK are fine.

Note that for citizenship if you wish to apply, there are separate absence limits.

Hi CR001,

Hope you are doing well!

Thanks a lot for the info, so useful (as always!)

All good thanks and hope you are too.

Happy to help (as always)
