Gaps? some advice would be greatly appreciated.
Posted: Thu Nov 17, 2011 8:27 pm
I am trying to apply for ILR with the 10 years rule.
When i first came to the uk as a student in 2001, i was using a british national overseas passport, and no visa were required back then for us, and all i have on my old passport was entry stamps stating arrival date and a "leave to enter for/until stamp"
heres the problem, I've got a month gap during 2003 and 2004, that was when i entered the uk during 2001, i've got a clearance to stay till august 2003, but i went home during that summer and did not return till the 1st of sep, therefore I've got a month gap but otherwise prefect.
how will that affect my application? would a solicitor be able to help?
Thanks for reading...[/code]
