Hi everyone! Please can someone advise me on this. I came to the UK Sept 2010. In 2014 I overstay my then leave to remain by 17 days and I returned back and apply for another entry clearance with 7 days of leaving the UK. So in summary, overstay of of 17 days + 7 days to apply after returning home. So am now completing my SET(LR) online application, however I cannot find anywhere they ask the question of if you have at any time overstay in the UK. Please I need someone to advise me on how to make the HO aware of this in the application.
Many thanks for reading and anticipated advice

If you applied within 28 days after your visa expiry, then you were granted new leave to remain and you returned within 6 months, your continuous residence was maintained and you will be fine. You do not need to tell UKVI about this, they have all your history
