Does anyone know how long she has to wait before she can re-enter the UK on another 6 month entry clearance. Do they even know when someone leaves the UK. We went back to Australia through Manchester Airport and there didn't seam to be any immigration station that recorded we were leaving, unless they get the info from the airlines. Appreciate any advice as I have to work for a few more months in the UK. I have a work visa myself. Peter.

They scan the barcodes in your passports as you enter and leave the country. I suppose they have visa info and dates on them? -------------------- Thailand, Laos and Cambodia 2010

Cheers Darren....have given up trying to return to UK due to chances of being refused entry and sent back. Thanks for your reply.
