Bear in mind that short visits to the UK won't break the 2 year absence.

The following categories do not qualify for admission under Paragraph 18 of HC 395: (Returning Resident)
- a person who is returning only for a limited period (eg. as a visitor) simply so as to show a period of residence here within 2 years of departure;
(Casa, not CR001)
Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
