Long residence applications are for people who may qualify for indefinite leave to remain after 10 years of lawful and continuous residence in the UK. These applications require careful checking because gaps, incorrect dates or unexplained absences can create problems.
The Home Office reviews the applicant’s full immigration history, including previous grants of leave, in-time applications, periods of overstaying, absences and suitability issues.
Applying too early or without dealing with gaps in immigration history can put the application at risk. The qualifying period should be calculated before submission.
We can prepare a residence timeline, identify gaps or risk periods, review absences and organise the evidence before the application is submitted.
