Sue Scott
UK resident +3 years but worked outside the UK
Edited
Planned start date of Apprenticeship is Sept 2023
Learner is a UK resident however had been living/working/travelling around Australia during March 2020- April 2023.
It was on a working holiday visa subclass 417 for 2 years and then a NIL vac working holiday visa 417 (This was a covid affected visa offered by the Australian government).
These were all temporary visas and the learner paid tax in Australia as a working holiday holder not a resident.
Prior to this learner was also in Indonesia for 2 months volunteering, so left the UK in January 2020.
Returned to the UK in July 2022 for a period.
Is the learner eligible for an Apprenticeship? I am assuming the learner is eligible as she is an 'Ordinary Resident'
