Question 6.5 - entered without a stamp

Post by anne_k » Tue Mar 27, 2018 12:08 pm

Hello

This is regarding: Question 6.5 Did you last enter the UK using a valid passport or travel
document?

I last entered the UK from Ireland. I landed at Stansted Airport in London. For some reason, there was no passport control, even though I flew from a country outside the UK. So I did not need to show my passport and did not receive a stamp. Does that mean I should answer no to this question? I was carrying a valid passport.

Thanks
Anne

Useful to state on what basis you are applying for ILR and what your current visa status is etc.

There is no Passport control between Ireland and UK it is CTA (Common Travel Area)

Today for many nationalities there is the option of "registered traveller" where you don't get stamped every time you enter. What I did was just mention it all in covering letter
