Hi everyone,

I am sure this question has been thoroughly exhausted but does time away from the UK for work, as a Tier 2 visa holder, count towards the 540 days required for the ILR (10 year route)?

Thank you!

Yes, ALL absence counts and any absence of 180 days or more breaks continuity of residence.
