Gans, Is there any link guidance\policy link provided by either of the caseworker.. coz my condition is not very different from yours. It appears that dependant absences can be ignored , if total dependant visa duration is 2+ year on the appointment day. Though senior folks can comment best. Thanks

Congratulation mate..
