ekpotek:
The UKIV no longer issue exit stamp. Your exit from the UK is retrieved from airline check in system. So they know the actual date you left the UK including the airline name and even your seat number. The system works this way at the POE. They collect and swipe your passport on their system and all your information and immigration entry and exit from the UK is shown. So telling a white lie at POE if asked can actually delay your entry or your visa can even be cancelled for misinformation.
Oh, I seeeeee....Thank you so much for the response.

Hi Everyone,
Random question abeg.
Do the U.K immigration officers know when you leave their country?
For example, if i travel to london and spend 5 months, next time I'm going, when I get to the immigration point [that place where they ask you useless questions] and they ask how long I spent the last time I was there [they asked me before, not always] can i say I spent only 3 weeks instead of 5 months?
Will they see on their 'system' the date I Left or they can only see the Date I entered?

[I know the stamp on arrival to nigeria should show this, but assuming our nigerian immigration brothers 'mistankenly' stamped 3 weeks] grin Mistakenly o

Thanks
