hi,
I am a little bit confused with the meaning of this
Ordinarily resident
The relevant residence area is specified in each individual category, and is one of the following:
* the UK and Islands
* the EEA and Switzerland
* the EEA, Switzerland and the overseas territories
* the EEA, Switzerland, Turkey and the overseas territories
You are 'ordinarily resident' in the relevant area if you have habitually, normally and lawfully resided in that area from choice. Temporary absences from the residence area should be ignored.
If you can demonstrate that you have not been ordinarily resident in the relevant residence area only because you were, or your ‘relevant family member’ was, temporarily working outside the relevant residence area, you will be treated as though you have been ordinarily resident for the period during which this was the case.
Does that mean you have to be one of the previous bands in order to be ordinary resident?
My question is if ILR=settled and ordinary resident?
