Just an idea but they could have based it on number of days out of the UK in the year. My tax used to be assessed on that basis, thats why I mention it. Just a suggestion....

There was one year, a few years back, where I paid no tax because I qualified by spending less than the threshold number of days in the UK. Maybe the UKBA have used a similar method to assess residency?

(I used an accountant at the time. Saved myself quite a few thousand quid that year. All based on the number of days outside of the UK in the tax year)
