Had to go back from Feb 28-2016 - March 30 -2016 Emergency (Mother lost her sister father lost his first cousin through cancer)

Pulaski..i came back Wednesday March 30-2016 got this call early friday Morning Toronto time 2:00Am, would i need to have any documents pertaining to this situation from a doctor

What meant to say the she was paying her self but did not do it through the bank it was cash until we found out so we missed April, may and June, As of august 2014 to MArch 2016 we staements of her paying herself.

To answer your original question regarding whether you can return to the UK again; from your dates you spent 2 months from Dec 2015 to Feb 2016; one month from end Feb 2015 to end March 2016.

So, you have spent roughly three months in the UK. (not counting your stay on a marriage visitor visa).

You have not spent the 6 months allowed as a visitor, but you might get some questioning on your next visit as it is so quickly after your last one.

Take some evidence of this latest family emergency.

I've just found your thread from rootschat last year and the research they did. From what they say, your great grandfather may have married in India and had four children there, incuding your grandfather - if that is the right Thomas Waddel.

To make it easier for others on here who are researching for you, I hope you don't mind if I put that thread

The time spent on a marriage visitor visa would count towards the six in twelve rule of thumb as he was there as a visitor, not a resident, which means he is right up against the limit. I wouldn't chance it again without an ancestry/spouse visa or British passport in my hand.

That's 154 days in the last 365, 28 days shy of being six months in twelve. You could in theory go back now for a month or less as a visitor but I wouldn't chance it given the amount of time you have spent in the UK this year. Wait and see what the outcome of your family research produces before making any plans.

Are you retired? Being able to travel back and forth so easily usually means you are not employed.

Agree . I prefer to be exacting. Those dates and name don't match the anecdotal thoughts.
