Hi,

I am currently preparing to apply for ILR as Tier1 General using SET(O).

But, I am in total confusion about this Total number of days away from UK.

My Visa ( 1Yrs on WorkPermit,2Yrs HSMP, 3Yrs Tier1)

While I was on 2Yrs HSMP time - I traveled to India for my Marriage and EYE operation(LASIK) because of post operation complexiting - i need to stay for one more week ( 90+7days)

And also, over all - i stayed/traveled out of UK for 250days out of these 5years time.


Will these two points will effect my ILR application or not?

I been trying to find some kind of information around this, still I cannot decide myself whether to apply for ILR or Tier1 2nd Extention?

Do you have supporting evidence from the doctor certifying inability to travel due to medical reasons? If so, you may request for caseworker discretion in the matter.
