A: The UK's immigration rules dictate that if you have breached immigration laws but leave the UK voluntarily at the expense of the UK government, you might face a re-entry ban of up to 2 years, or even up to 5 years in certain circumstances. However, since you left before your visa expired and within 30 days of receiving notice, it suggests that you complied with the 30-day notice period, and this could potentially spare you from a re-entry ban. Nevertheless, given the complexities and individual nature of immigration cases, it is highly advised to consult with a legal expert to review the specifics of your situation and provide guidance based on the most current laws and regulations. It would be prudent to obtain comprehensive legal advice before making any decisions.
