Is it on page 83? If yes, it wasn't ticked in my application.

You may need it, as I have it in my employer letter, which is 40 hours per week.

Good luck

I submitted past six months and I didn't have any overdraft though. ILR got approved. I also attached other regular saving account and ISA as well.

Good luck

Hi vipulalways,

I have submitted MSc and BSc certificates and they are both from UK universities.

Good luck,

Hi all, My ilr got approved yesterday without letter from previous employer about absences. Sheffield PSC 5 years tier 2 route Single applicant with no dependent Documents submitted --------------------------- 2 old passports and current one Tier 2 brp 2 recent photos Application form Life in uk BSc...

No. I don't think so. also may be two recent photos? It is about the same list requested by my solicitor, in addition to all bank accounts I have. I don't think it is necessary, she is just making a strong stand for the application. I don't have the absence letter from my previous employer either (j...

Hi kaps2804, I noted that you apply for ilr via tier 2 route. I wonder if you submit any previous employer letter for absences or any other confirmation from them regarding the length of service & pay. I only have historic letter and my solicitor is suggesting it may raise questions from case wo...

Hi,
Thanks for the information. Which category do you apply under? If it is tier 2, do you submit any absence from any previous employer?
I am not able to secure one from my previous employer who is not so helpful for any form of support.

Kind regards,
mmo

Hi,

I am not expert on here, but applying next week (PSC appointment) and I just wonder if you don't need life in UK test result also?

Good luck,
mmo

Hi pythonista, Sorry to throw a question at your question. I am also in the same situation. I sent an email to previous employer requesting a letter for the ILR application. Not hearing anything from them yet. I am applying next month, going for in person application in Sheffield. I will be waiting ...

Hi avi,

Next month, it will be Sheffield same day application.

Best of luck,
mmo

Hi avi, I will do. I am thinking to submit the email I sent to them if they refuse to do (which is something very likely). Also I have air etickets in my inbox from my holidays to see the parents. I will submit them as well as the airport immigration controls stamps from my home country airport and ...

Hi kautya, Thanks for the reply, it is really helpful. I also spoken to my solicitor about this this morning and she is adamant about getting it from former employer. I have just emailed them to see how they respond now. I just doubt that they will do. Since I have left them a few years back and the...

Hi rami1988,

Did you manage to sort out the ilr with your own letter? I am in the same boat, having difficulty getting absence letter from former employer. I have to write my own as well, applying next month.

Thanks,
mmo

Hi, I am a tier 2 holder applying for ilr in three weeks time, my solicitor just send me ideal template for absence letter from former employer. I have left that job 3 years ago and when I was leaving they wanted me to stay and I didn't. Now I am not sure how cooperative they will be. So is it fine ...

Thanks Tallat, I am going for in person appointment and am not so busy at work at the moment. So just with my wandering mind, all possible bumps come to my head. I got my tier 2 in June, so I could argue that April and May pays are on old lower rate, if they happens to want to see my employment hist...

Thanks Tallat for reply such quick. :) You are a star. I am in similar situation. My first year of 5 years shows an earning less than what is mentioned on the SOC. After that, it is all good though. I have lost p60 for second year as well. So I asked for employment history from HMRC, which hopefully...

Hi Tallat,
Did you managed to get your ILR successfully at the end? I am on similar boat for my first year.
Please reply,
thanks

Does anyone know anything about case like mine?

I got another question, my rate is currently about 35690.00 per year for 40 hours per week. I just been doing some calculation regarding 35k for 39 hours per week.

39 hours = 35000
40 hours = (35000 / 39) * 40 = 35897.43.

Does that mean my pay is not eligible yet?

Thanks.

Someone sent me a private message regarding this thread and I dot know who. Also when I click the link in my notification email it said I am not authorized to read private messages. How can I contact site admins for this matter?

Hi, Thanks for the reply :) As additional support role, it is just over 2400 a year more I had secured for myself. My base pay is 33200 per annum. So total is more than 35k. Soc code for my job is 2136, which is 29600 per annum. I am not sure if I missed anything though. I will have about 8 payslips...

Hi both, thanks for the reply. I just concern a bit too much. I have managed to get extra duties at work. But that will come as additions in my payslip, rather than under base salary and I am not sure that will be ok?

Hmm, increasing SOC to unreasonably high might be bad news for people like me who work as software engineer earning just over 33k. I will keep watching the news and update this thread. I have been reading all of the news, and I suspect they going to increase or even limit the Tier 2 visa. I am plan...

Hi,
I am earning currently just over 33k excluding bonus and eligible for ilr in May 2016. Assuming I can get additional duties and salary, I will be over 35k by that time.

My question is, is 35k requirement applied to at time of application or whole fifth year?

Thanks,
mmo
