That is correct. There is no limit on the time BCs can spend abroad
You are correct.alterhase58 wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 1:05 pm@secret.simon
My understanding was that if one holds a UK passport you cannot apply for CoE-RoA
This suggests that he also has a British passport which presumably he has been using when entering the UK
Yes, if he has a British passport, he can't apply for a CoE-RoA.

His home country does not allow dual nationals therefore he has been using non british passport with the ILR to travel to his home country.
Having said that, he has been a resident in the UK for over 20 years, owns a property here (currently rented out) but last couple of years, he had to return to his home country to look after an ill family member and covid happenned.
He is now looking to return back to UK for settlement and start work again since the economy is opening up again(hes a contractor). Just for arguments sake, on the offchance he surpasses the 2 years limit, what would happen? Surelly he cannot be denied entry since hes a british citizen also?
I suspect that the father does not have a BRP.
The "No Time Limit" applies to time within the UK. There is no time limit on how long you can reside within the UK. ILR lapses automatically if the holder has lived outside the UK for two continuous years.
