ILR - Same day - more than 180 days

[antouk]

Hi All,

I have a total absence of 182 days:

126 days - Holidays(most of it are paid leaves)
53 days - delayed entry in to UK(got HSMP 28 Feb 2008, entered UK 23 APR 2008)
3 days - Business trip.

Am i eligible to apply for same day ILR?

Thanks in advance

Question 17a of FAQs for ILR - WP/Tier 2/HSMP/Tier 1 suggests that initial absence is not counted towards the total absence.

Can someone in the same situation/experts answer please?

Is there a possibility of refusal for my application?

1. You don't need to account for the delayed initial entry in your total absences.

2. there will always be a possibility of rejection of any application. But wrt your absences, if your did not have any single absences of 90 days continuous or 180 days total, you should be fine.

@wpilr_nov12
You are right about the rejections. I do not have 90 days continous or more than 180 days(excluding initial days) of absence. Thanks. Your word are encouraging
