Residency for British citizens

By labdas

My Husband is due to start work in Qatar within the next couple of months. Both of us will be sponsored by his new compay to gain residency.

My query is that if I gain residency & am not working either in Qatar or the UK, am I limited to the number of trips or days I can return to the UK?

Many thanks.

You do not have any problems.

If you declare yourself as UK non resident and are earning abroad. Then you can only spend a maximum of 90 days in the UK per tax year.

There is a limit, tcom. If she wants to stay out of Qatar for more than six months she needs a special document. Otherwise the visa is cancelled.

Your sponsor will be your husband and not his company as you are not working. There is no restriction as to the number of trips one can take only limit will be your bank balance.
