Hi ,

I have already applied for my extension and it’s been over 8 months , I was wondering if the decision comes , and god forbidden if it come negative and I leave country in 30 days and apply for another route for outside , will these waiting time for decision count towards 10 years long stay and is 160 days alllowed to stay outside ? Is this right ?

Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for prompt reply ,

Could you please tell , about waiting time for decision time , from my last visa expire , I have ad applied for extension before my last visa expired .

Thanks

[CR001]

To do what you are proposing, i.e. leave the UK and return within 180 days, you MUST leave the UK with valid leave to remain.

If your previous visa has already expired and extension is refused, applying from abroad won't maintain your residence for ILR LR.

If you require the passport for identification purposes, you can request for it back from HO.

If you are requesting your passport for ID purposes, then also explicitly state that you are not withdrawing your application.
