ILR Application Advice 10 year - Continuous residency

Post by tier2generalhelp » Sat Mar 26, 2022 7:27 pm

Hello All,

I arrived in UK in 2012 July on tier 2 ICT and stayed legally till 2017 June . I got back again in october 2017 on a visitor visa for couple of weeks and then returned . Got Tier 2 general and arrived in uk in dec 2017. I complete my 10 years in July 2022. Can anyone advice if my case qualifies for 10 year continuous residency . I need clarification if my visit in 2017 october qualifies for the continuous residency

Thanks in Advance

All legal residence in the UK, including visit visas, count towards Long Residence, provided
(a) you left the UK before the end of your visas, Even a single day's overstay can void this,
(b) you returned back to the UK within 180 days on either the same or different visa.

The other requirements (no single absence from the UK exceeding 180 days and total absences not exceeding 540 days, etc) also need to be met.

Can you please clarify the meaning of the below

you were absent from the UK for less than 6 months but had no leave either upon departure or return (or both).

What does no leave either upon departure or return

It means your visa or right to be in UK had already lapsed before you left UK. And probably because of this though you returned to UK within 6months it can not be taken for continuous residence

Just a correction in my visa details

First came in on tier 2 ICT - 5 years
Then Visitor visa - 2 weeks
Tier 2 General dependent - 5 years

My question is can the can the change to dependent also be included in continuous residence

Kind Regards

You have to keep checking, they release priority/super priority slots randomly everyday

Hi, what’s your date of arrival in the Uk? Did you apply 28 days before 5 year period or 28 days before visa expiry date? Have you gotten your ilr response?

Just refresh the page. Try at around 12 or 1 am

Also, can you list the documents you will be submitting?

Hi All,
Please I need help to understand when do I get to book the Super priority service. Is it when I make payment (the £2k +) or after making the payment?

I appreciate your help.

@Croo, thank. So I have to make the payment 1st then I will be offered the super priority service right?
I'm just not sure and I don't want to make the payment and I can't get the super priority service, hence my question.
