突然看到官方文件计算12个月内180天离境写的内容，有些迷惑
No more than 180 whole days absence are allowed in any of the five, four, three or two 12 month periods.
请问这里红色部分怎么理解啊。五个连续12个月不能超过180天是什么意思？意思是5年内总和也不能超过180天了？谢啦
我理解是过去的5年内任何12个月都不超过180天。
任何连续的12个月不超过180天
申请之日往前倒推，每个连续12个月不超过180天。好好看官方说明文件，里面写的很清楚。

认真看了 但是很难理解清楚 “No more than 180 whole days absence are allowed in any of the five, four, three or two 12 month periods.” 这就是原话 怎么理解呢
认真看的意思是你要把信息看全，光看这一句当然不清楚。
Calculating the specified continuous period
Applicants can submit a settlement application up to 28 days before they would reach the end of the specified period. However, the specified continuous period is always counted backwards from the date the ILR application is submitted. For example, if an applicant would have reached the end of a specified 5 years with leave in a qualifying route on 30 November 2015 and they apply on 11 November 2015, the consecutive periods would be as follows:
Year 1
11 November 2015
to 12 November 2014
Year 2

11 November 2014

to 12 November 2013
Year 3
11 November 2013
to 12 November 2012
Year 4
11 November 2012
to 12 November 2011
Year 5
11 November 2011
to 12 November 2010
The applicant may not have had leave in a qualifying route for up to 28 days at the start of Year 5 (in this example, between 11 November 2010 and 29 November 2010). This is acceptable.
我看到这个计算12 month period了
我的问题是为什么要说"any of the five, four, three or two 12 month periods." 这样表达和 “any of the five 12 month periods” 有什么区别呢？ 担心有什么没有理解到。谢拉
以下是完整句子，看看能不能帮助你更好理解。
No more than 180 whole days absence are allowed in any of the five, four, three or two consecutive 12 month periods, depending on the category, preceding the date of the application for indefinite leave to remain (ILR).
你是拿了5年簽證之後申請ILR，所以是any of the five consecutive 12 month period。別人是拿2年簽證申請ILR，所以是any of the two consecutive 12 month period。
哦哦哦 理解了 多谢
