You would need to provide more than a letter. Details of his tenancy or ownership would be mandatory. Was accommodation the only reason cited in the refusal? Thanks for your response. I can provide a letter from him along with the ownership document. Will that be enough? There was another reason fo...

Did you submit any other documents to show ties with the UK during that period?

No. None asked or submitted

Hi, I would like to thank this forum for the all the direct/indirect help I got through information on this forum. This has been the greatest resource and knowldge base for me. I have been in the UK on a work permit. 2 months ago I started preparing for ILR application. I met all the criteria and my...

29/07/2007 - got passport stamped as came to uk

is this date you came to UK the first time? If yes then you can apply after completion of 4 yrs and 11 months from this date as you have more than 90 days gap between the work permit date and the date you entered UK.

Thank you all

Thank you sunil.Suneel. Did you pay by Visa debit card or do you know someone who did?

Hi, Is there anybody who knows if we can pay using Visa debit card at Solihull PEO? It is not mentioned in the form, but I have read in a few posts here where members have confirmed that they have paid using Visa debit but that was mostly at Croydon PEO. Just want to know is visa debit is accepted a...

Hi Every one, I got my Tier 1 visa and it is valid from March 27 2007 and I landed in UK on July 18 ie. after 113 days after visa start date. By this March 27 2012(5 years from March 27 2007 ) , will I be eligble for ILR application and Do I have to do another extension upto July 18? Thanks Sasi Up...

you are well within limits as your total absences are less than 180 and you dont have any single absence at a stretch over 90 days. Not sure why your lawyer thinks you have a problem.

I am not sure if letter 1 is required. You could just get your payslips attested by your employer instead of getting a letter each of each payslip (im assuming thats what you are trying to do?)

Letter 2 looks good and covers required points.

In my view, the letter explained very well about my trip. Thats really surprising cos as per thier policy they will use thier discretion to disregard/agregate excess absences if they were for business reasons. i am in a similar situation with a business trip of 97 days at a stretch, my appointment ...

Did your company letter specifically address your absence of 120 days at a stretch and explain reasons why the trip was necessary for business?

already avaialble in may posts in this forum. see http://immigrationboards.com/viewtopic. ... m&start=20

Hi All, Thanks for your responses. "happ_go_lucky" - All the best for your interview. I understand the possible outcomes. My question is more towards, what is considered as Business Travel ? My friend's case , as he went to off-shore. though he worked for the same company , employer wouldn't be giv...

> 90 days is difficult ( lawyers deem these cases to be too time-consuming to bother ) but certainly not impossibile. Best result will be approval after some weeks delay. Worst result will be an agregated period ( not really that bad ). If you go in with that approach and just ask the ask to agrega...

sunil.suneel wrote:Covering letter would always be helpful if you need to communicate your not so straightforward situation. But keep it short and include details only pertaining to your >90 absence.

Thank you sunil.suneel.

Hi, I have my appointment at Solihull next week. I meet all the criteria but one, i.e I have one >90 days absence and have employers letter to support the fact that it was a business requirement. I have seen some posts whee people have mentioned that they had submitted a covering letter. Is this nec...

From what I know and having read a lot of posts on this forum, Multiple absences with >90 days could be an issue however there is possibility that the case worker will use discretion to disregard them if the absences were for business reasons and is supported by a letter from the employer. I have on...

Congrats. Did you have long absences?

Congrats tknayak.
