yeah i dont have them, would have to spend the night digging through my multiple inboxes and emails and then print out... seems like its not needed when i read the forum. i also have the results from my Subject Access Request..i assume they also have this data so no need to send.. in addition, i was...

is one expected to provide print outs of flights and hotel bookings for annual leave and business trips outside the UK for the 5 years, when applying on Tier 2?

thanks once again...

yep, its a sneaky email confirmation for the appointment..going this thursday...!

thanks for the time guru cfdman

my emplyer said they cant specify exact absences and their legal counsel said they are not required to..hopefully will be ok..

silly question, the "payment details" page 7/76 on SET O forms - if i paid online for a same day, do i still need to fill in this page?

thanks for your attention, appreaciate it. 1. i dont have a BRP, never managed to get one...hopefully not a problem? will submit current visa/passport 2. Yes forgot the appointment confirm. 3. employer letter contains all of above...and has a sentence "Employee XX is still employed in this func...

great, thanks for the advice! So, If submitting for myself only, via Tier 2 5y visa residency, i only need to submit below + copies: 2x photos PEO meeting confirm letter SET O form LIFE in the UK certificate IELTS certificate Absence sheet (total 364 days in 5 year, max 60 days absence in one go, no...

being i am applying via Tier 2, do i need to prove residence via council tax, utility bills? not sure if i have all these for the past 5 years.

thanks, its helpful, i hoped its like this.

I only have the most recent p60 not all 5y, so wont even mention it probably.

Titl3 says it all, thanks for your thoughts.

What is the purpose of the P60, to prove residence over 5y, or to prove you paid your fiar share of taxes?

has anyone received the ILR via Tier 2, without submitting P60s?

Many thanks

Hi all, below is my breakdown, total of 364 days in 5 years out of the UK. 2 times absence was 65 days at once (changing visas). If i go 12 consecutive months back as of Feb 2015, each year in Feb (2014,2013,2012,2011,2010) i am under 180 days in those 12 months, Feb to Feb. Is this the correct way ...

thanks for all your replies. i went to the branch, they printed out a copy saying "duplicate copy". I also asked them to send it to my address. They said the ones sent to me will be exactly the same as the statements i printed out using online banking, only in colour (with hsbc logo etc). ...

i received the original so will go with that.

I bank with HSBC, they dont sign or stamp (as everyone knows) anything.

I also bank online, so havent received any statements by post.

HSBC claims i can just print out the PDF statement through online banking.

Has anyone done this and it went ok?

thanks

Does anyone know what tyep of proof is required to prove english language knowlege via IELTS? The guidance on the tests says "For tests taken before 6 April 2013: Test report form For tests taken on or after 6 April 2013: no documents required (Scores must be verified using the Cambridge Englis...

Many thanks for your effort and time taken to review this! yes i have seen the guidance but its not clear with regards to having BOTH Tier 2 and Exempt in parallel, which is why i asked the HO staff as well i actually DO have 5 year continous uncurtailed Tier 2 leave. My visa stamps and Subject Acce...

Think organisations like the UN etc..they have "exempt" visa stamps, exempting them from immigration control.
Its a lawful leave in the UK, and yes i worked for them, during my Tier 2 sponsorhip after i left that employer.

Exempt visa is a type of diplomatic visa.

Thanks for the reply.

I did write in my post that i had applied 21 days after my previous visa expired?

So this is a very unique situation i would imagine, still i hope some of you here had experience. 1. i had a tier 2 visa for 3 years, but after 1.5 years my epmployment with this sponsor terminated. 2. The employer didnt curtail my visa so it went on for full 3 years, Home Office did not curtail it ...

hi everyone, i assume this is all fine but wanted to double check: 1st tier 2 visa expired 29/6/2010 2nd tier 2 visa started 30/7/2010 application for 2nd tier 2 visa submitted on 21/77/2010 31 days in between end and start date, but 22 days between end date and application date. Should be ok? cheers
