UK Ancestry - initial absence greater than 90 days to the UK
Posted: Tue Jun 14, 2011 1:03 am
Hi everyone,
I've just had my UK Ancestry visa granted, which I am stoked about!!!
However, I put on my application that my travel date was to be August, and a comment saying that I wanted my visa to start from that date.
Unfortunately it has my start date as 6th June 2011, so it was obviously the date they processed it last week.
I do not arrive into the UK until mid-August at which point I will then be travelling through Europe until the end of September, staying about 5 days in UK over that time.
Pretty much, it means that in the first 100 days of my Visa starting I will only be in the UK for 5 days.
I presume this will impact negatively on me down the track if I ever want to apply for indefinite leave to remain? Is there anything at all I can do now (apart from arriving earlier or not travelling Europe)?
Cheers
