Exceeding Absences in the Qualifying Period

[milan69]

You are not required to give evidence, HO will ask for it if they need to. I think if you apply through NCA you will get the same answer.
Also, any social activity would go into proving you have aettled here.

On more query please.

As of now
In 5 years: 580 days
In last 1 year: 140 days

Can I apply now if I suffice home, family and estate (which I can) with above facts?

Or

Should I wait and apply in April 2015 when last 1 year absences would come down to 85 days. This would be safer or would it matter in anyways on applying now and then?

Regards

I hope maybe gurus can help with this one as I am not sure.
My logic tells me that if I can wait for two and a half months, apply with only one problem at hand with very good chances being successful than I would wait.
I think that these are two separate issues (final year and last 5 years) and I would want to increase my chances in receiving an approval.
Again, this is just an opinion and would loce to hear what other members think.

You are absolutely right milan69.

I and my wife agreeing with you. To increase the probability its better to wait and apply! Its just a couple of months.

This would bring one problem down by meeting last one year requirement i.e. under 100 days of requirement.
