Does "countries I have lived in" include travels?

Post by pashmakiok » Sun Oct 15, 2023 8:16 pm

Hi,

I am applying for ILR using the 5-year route. The application has this question:
Other countries you have lived in
Have you previously lived in a country outside the UK including your country of birth?
I have obviously lived in my home country since birth until I moved to the UK in 2015, then was a student for 3 years, then on work route for 5 years.

I will obviously mention my home country (from birth to 2015).

However, during both student visa and work visa periods, I have travelled multiple times to my home country, and many other times to other countries as tourist or for academic conferences. I have also done some travel before moving to the UK.

Which of these travels should I mention for THIS question? Do I need to mention my home country again and again for every time I went there for a trip? Do I need to mention, for example, a one-week trip to Greece? Which of these are countries I "lived in"?

(This question is different from the other question where we mention absences and entry/exits).

Thank you!

These questions are not even important at all. They have NO effect on your application.
Advice is given based on my personal research and experience only. Do NOT contact me via private message for immigration advice
