Success with 575 absences in last five years
Posted: Fri Feb 28, 2014 12:55 pm
Hi All,
My wife's citizenship application has been approved. She had 575 absences in last five years. Of these 365 were because of a single trip to India for delivery of our daughter. We provided the following documents with our application:
1. Letter from the GP stating that my wife required care during pregnancy
2. Letter from the doctor in India stating the same
3. Other documents related to her treatment in India.
The lady at NCS was a bit sceptical and advised us not to apply. She even asked us to sign an undertaking confirming that she advised us not to apply as the application might get rejected.
One reason why the case worker may have approved the case is that the absences were during the initial 2 years. So even if the case was rejected now, my wife would have soon become eligible as spouse of BC.
Thought of posting this information as it may be of use to others in similar situation.
