Hi all,


I am near to apply for my PR which is due by the end of 2016, I have just got a job which will start in a month time , I have to relocate my self for this job so I have to leave my current job and I am bit worried If this 1 month gap between old to new job would create a break in exercising treaty right .??

any thoughts ??

Thanks,
Regards,
BIl.

I think other members have been accepted even with one month breaks and some non-HO guidance also states that one month breaks are okay. However, as this is not official HO guidance you could be unlucky and get a caseworker that rejects you for not having exercised your treaty rights continuously.
To be on the safe side, why not purchase CSI (private health insurance) so that you'd be exercising treaty rights as a self-sufficient person? (Costs some money but may be worth it in the long run...)
