Dear All,

I have tried checking this query on forums but no one had the same confusion like this.

I have a query in the below question as I was first entered in UK as a student in Sept 2005 and then got my first WP1 in Nov 2007, got my second WP2 in Oct 2008 upon changing an employment and received my Tier-1 in MAY 2009 (under the regulation place before 31 April 2009).
my query is what date I should write in the question asked below:
''When did you (the main applicant) first enter the UK? This
refers to the date of your first entry into the UK at the beginning of
the period of stay on which this application is based." (Section 6 - question 6.1).

Need expertise advice please!!

Thank you

The answer is in the guidance. If you read section 5 it says:

There is a qualifying period to complete in most of the
categories on this form. It runs either from
- the date on which you entered the UK with a visa
in the relevant category; or, if you did not enter the
UK with such a visa, from
- the date on which you were first granted permission
to remain in the UK in the relevant category.

What form and error are you referring to here? My response above was to the OP "KDP".

Hello Guys,

I've one query about my absences while I was on work permit. I am planning to apply for my SET (O) in the end of November 2012.
My case is as below:

First work Permit received From my First employer (PAYE):
November 2007 - September 2008
(Holidays in India - from February 2008 - March 2008= Total Days away from UK = 34 days (Fours Weeks Paid and 2 Weeks Unpaid)

Second Work Permit received from Second employer upon changing my employment (PAYE):
October 2008 - March 2009 (No Holidays taken)

Applied for Tier-1(General) Initial Application:

On 30 March 2009 (Hence falls under the rules in place before 31 march 2009)
Holidays in India to celebrate Diwali - from 1 November 2010- 26 November 2010
Total Days away from UK = 26 Days (Two Weeks Paid and Two Weeks Unpaid)

Applied for Extension in March 2012.

My query is do I require a letter from my First Employer explaining about my absences in the Month of February 2008 - March 2008 and from my current employer for my absences in the Month of November 2010.

Please require your expertise advise at the earliest.

Thank you

KDP

If your total absences in the qualifying period are less than 180 and you have no single absence of 90 days or more, you don't need to provide a letter from past / present employers certifying leaves.
