Hi, I am applying for ILR from Tier 2 visa route.
As part of the application I have to detail the time out of the UK. On one of the business trips, I flew to Poland via Copenhagen (transit) and the stamps in my passport states Copenhagen for both entry and exit as I believe there was no immigration control in Poland where I landed and hence the reason for my passport being stamped in Copenhagen.
My employer's letter will state the business trip as me going to Poland.
Do I need to provide any further information or detail the reason as to why there is no stamp in the passport in Poland?
I guess there is no harm in stating when I am filling the immigration history section that the purpose of the trip was "business trip via Copenhagen"?
Thanks.

No issue. You may list you visited Poland via Copenhagen for a business trip in the reason section. Entry/Exit dates to/from UK matters only.

Thanks Cullinan, perhaps a silly one but will it make a difference if the wording doesn't exactly match to what it states on the letter from my employer, e.g., if the employer only states business trip and I state business trip via Copenhagen?

No. You are overthinking. Even if you do not state that in the reason, its okay. Just suggested a way for your peace of mind.

Cool, this helps a lot, thank you!

Hi, Is it possible to use my phone to scan documents as opposed to using a traditional scanner when I upload documents for ILR (from Tier 2)?
Obviously that would be a lot more convenient for me, I would be able to get perhaps an even better image quality, would be in colour (I know it doesn't matter) etc. but was just wondering if that's okay?
Just wanted to check if someone else has done it in the past and if they had any problems or issues with it?
Thank you

I have always used my phone to scan documents for all my applications post 2018. Never had any issues.

Cool, thanks for the confirmation Cullinan.

Hi, I had a couple of questions and was wondering if someone could clarify these. I am applying for ILR via Tier 2 visa route.

1) I have read multiple opinions on the forum regarding passport scans upload. Is it okay if I upload JUST main passport page and the stamped pages ONLY or should I upload the entire passport?
I have a couple of passports and my second passport only has stamp on one page and seems like a waste of both my and HO's time to upload 30 blank pages but obviously if that's the better approach then I will do so.

2) I got one of my passports when I was a student in Pakistan and I have NEVER travelled on it. Do I need to include that passport too? The checklist states: "All previous passports, travel documents or national identity cards that you have used to travel to or remain in the UK" and as such I don't see any point in including that.

Topics merged!! Please do not post ILR questions in the skilled worker sub forum. Keep all your questions about ILR in one topic please, this one.

Thanks CR001, would appreciate the help from any member regarding the questions posted above or any experience they have had in this context!

Another silly question to add to the ones above, do I need to include the passport front and back cover pages?

ONLY the biometric page and stamps
