Hi,

I am planning to apply the ILR SET(O) Tier1 General in the end of May 2011. I have few questions:

1. Absence for work:
During May 2006 ~ May 2011, there are 201 day absences. (21days more than 180 days in total in 5 years)
However the beginning 67 days absence was for work (May~Aug 2006), the rest of 134 days are for holiday.
I have been sent to work for a project abroad in 2005 Jun~2006 Aug by an UK company who applied my first work permit back to May 2005.
During my absence, I was paid UK salary and paid UK TAX. I have all my P60 as well as a company letter for evidence.
I wonder if this can put any negative impact with application?

2. New criminality threshold:
I haven’t see any document required for the new criminality threshold. I have no any criminal records.
Do I need to submit any document for that? For example CRB certificate.

3. I don’t need a Police Registration Certificate when I first entered UK. I wonder do I need to apply one for ILR application?

Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks you with regards,

TK

1. There won't be any negative impact. Just get your employer to certify your work related absence. (You can find a format in the sticky)
2. You don't need to submit any CRB certificates.
3. If you didn't need one at the time of your entry, you don;t need to do anything else.

1. If you want to mitigate risk of a refusal due to overseas assignment in 2005-2006 falling within the qualifying residential period, you should apply for settlement in / after Aug-11.
2. By doing so, the number of absences will also come down to be within the permitted limit.
3. Applicant is only required to declare any unspent conviction(s). Applicant is not required to submit any document to prove that he has / doesn't have any unspent conviction(s).
4. Police registration is required for nationals of certain countries.

Thanks for your reply.
Do you know anyone successful applied ILR with work related absences?

Thanks, Sushdmehta.
I am now more worried when you said the point1. Do you mean there are some risk?
Please Anyone know any case in this regard?
My friend got his ILR in Jan 2011 but he basically works abroad for UK company on his final year of the 5 years. but he applied under HSMP.
