Question about re-entering to UK after PSW expired

Post by blue1987 » Thu Mar 08, 2012 12:03 pm

Hi, I am currently holding a PSW visa which will expire at end of March. I intended to stay in UK until end of June. I have arrange a holiday to Spain at end of March and will leave the UK border before my visa expire and come back in as general visitor after that. I believe that for general visit purposes, I can stay up to 6 months (Malaysia Passport). I have the following documents ready for uk custom:

1) Bank statement
2) Flight ticket to Malaysia at end of June
3) Council tax / water bill

Will I have any difficulties re-entering UK and is my documents sufficient for me to re-enter uk as general visitor?

Many thanks

Thank you for your speedy reply.

So I will need:

1) Bank statement ( Financial proof )

2) Council Tax / Water bill ( Accommodation proof)

3) Flight ticket going back to Malaysia ( To prove that I intended to go back Malaysia after this)

Is it sufficient? or do I need some other documents to support my entry to uk?

What were you doing in the UK on your PSW visa prior to going to Spain?

If you were working then the IO may well wish to satisfy himself that this is no longer the case. He/she may also want to know why you are coming back as a visitor so soon after you have probably already spent a considerable amount of time in the UK.

Be prepared for some searching questions.

I used to have a full time job here but I quit last month. My partner will only finish her studies at June, so I will accompany her til end of June and go back Malaysia together.
