Good morning

I'm hoping to send off my application for a SET(LR) visa based on 10 years living in the UK. I'd be very grateful if someone could help with the question in bold

My immigration history is as follows:
Visa start Visa end Category, Place of Issue
16/09/2003 30/10/2004 Student, Heathrow Airport, London, UK
29/09/2004 29/09/2006 Working Holiday Maker British High Commission, Ottawa Canada
23/09/2005 31/01/2010 FLR(S) STUDENT Croydon, UK
12/03/2010 30/07/2011 Tier 4 (General) Student UK
26/04/2011 31/01/2013 Tier 4 (General) Student UK
06/03/2013 06/09/2013 Spouse/Partner UK

My Working Holiday Visa was issued in Canada while I was on vacation there; however, I was still living at that time in the UK on a valid visa. Does this still qualify for the 10 year period?

Many thanks!

So far so good.

You haven't mentioned anything about your days out of the UK and when did you actually apply for Spouse/Partner visa and where?

Mean while have a read through Long residence and private life

Thanks so much! I thought I'd ask that question first about the Working Holiday visa as I'd had to get it in Canada (but I was not on an expired visa at that time or anything).

So, over in the period of 2003-2013 I've been out of the UK for 117 days vacation and 186 days university research related to my PhD study. I was never out of the country for more than 180 days in any given year.

And the Spouse/Partner visa I am currently on was granted 06/03/2013 and is valid until 06/09/2013 and was granted in the UK.

I'd be very grateful for any comments you have.

Cheers!
