Well I had to travel frequently on business and I ended up with a tally of slightly above the 90 day mark at the time of application. My application was approved and I'm fairly confident that the 94 days outside the UK will not affect your application in any way. The NCS staff tend to be pedantic about the process to ensure procedural integrity.destiniation_london wrote:Alright, I had my NCS appointment today with Hounslow NCS, flown from Belfast to get there.
It went well, my application was pretty straight-forward, no convictions or history, not spent more than 450 days outside UK in past 5 years. The only thing was I had been out of UK for 94 days in the last 12 months, the lady did raise her eyebrow over it but said it should be fine as I had been only been away from UK for a total of 207 days in the past 6 years.
She did made me tick 'Special circumstances' check-box at the end of the application on declaration and asked me to explain it in the box below.
As per caseworkers guidelines they do disregard absences up to 100 days in the last 12 months, I explained it to her but she said she's only going by the guidelines published. But, she did speak to her senior about it and she thinks it should not be a problem with HO.
What do you guys think?
Hopefully it should be all OK and will receive my approval soon....lets see..
