Thanks for letting us know..I was starting to get a bit worriedwas wrote:I sincierly thank all the members of the board for helpful advice . I got my passport with ILR. For information i applied on 5 oct 2007 and i got back my passport on 6th jan 2008.
i have few questions
1. I got no covering letter with passport, is it normal or they forgot to do that.
2. how many days of absence is allowed before i apply for passport.

And at the 540 mark, you can probably forget it. I I was you, I wouldn't take any more trips business or personal abroad.

It depends on when the bulk of his absences were though..He could have spent 200 days out of the UK during his first year in this country (<90 days on each occasion) but it would not be considered as only the 5 years prior to application count..

No its not consistent with the paid annual leave. Its just mentioned in letter that i work for so and so company from so and so date and i was absent for so and so dates because of some offshore work. thats it.kariarxy wrote:hi, was, as I read from your your previous post, u have very long personal holiday, is it consistent with the paid annual leave? Or do you need to provide any explaination when u make your ILR application? In addition, do u mind sharing with us ur company letter?
thanks.

I think you should consider yourself lucky that they granted it. You were pushing the limits in terms of your absences, they could very well have said, no thank you.was wrote:thanks paulp, and yes its frustating that even after paying more money one has to wait for so long for the decision. its really madpaulp wrote:Congratulations.
It's normal, even for PEO applications. It's mad isn't it?

Thanks, that also gives me a rough timeline, I have applied on the 15th of November, so I should still be patient.was wrote:I sincierly thank all the members of the board for helpful advice .
