How this count works

For each recorded absence, the reminder date is the departure date plus six calendar months. The numerical absence total excludes departure and return dates. This counter shows the recorded absence whose reminder date is nearest.

Check your residence category and any authorization for longer absence. This reminder uses the general six-month rule; exempt categories and approved extensions differ.
