Maternity Leave time off in 5 year period
Posted: Sun Jan 12, 2014 11:31 pm
Gurus,
I currently have leave to remain in UK under TIER 2 General (for a shortage occupation SOC ) and would be making ILR application after 2016.
I'll be going on maternity leave of about 9 months this year (will be in UK for most of the time thus not breaking 180 day rule).
Query:
Will the time that I spend in UK on maternity leave be finally counted towards my 5 year of continuous stay ?
Many thanks in advance
