Prison sentence and the 2 year residence test.
Any advice would be appreciated…
Client has been abroad ie outside the UK and Europe for approx 10 years. Upon his return to the UK he is immediately sentenced to imprisonment. After serving 2 years in prison he obviously leaves prison and wishes to know if he can apply for PIP. Quite simply can the 2 years in prison go towards the required 2 years residence test when claiming PIP.
