If you can get the letter from your employer, then that would be the best. Company's first name is enough. Basically the amount should match with the wage slip. If you provide the tax returns for a period, you do not have to provide the form 16 for that period. Even if you provide, I dont think they...

Hi Ash123, If the signature is in blue ink (to show that this is not a copy of the payslip), I guess it should be fine. In my case one of the company had their stamp in blackish gray color but the signature was in blue ink. Along with the payslips, you should be providing your tax returns. If you do...

You can provide all the details there. For preparing the Airway bill, you need to login through the UK fedex homepage. Then click...

Hi Satheea, If you are not using the salary from your second employer, just concentrate on your first employer. I hope you have the Tax return acknowledgement for some or the whole of the period. Because your wage slips and the tax return acknowlegement are the primary proofs. If you have them, then...

Well the guidelines say that there should not be any gap between the jobs you do in more than one country. But I think if it is the same month, then it should be fine since you will have two pay slips from the two companies for the same month, even though it is for a lesser period. If you are using ...

Hi Kellyson, 1. Yes, all the payslips need to have the seal and signature on them. That is to authenticate that the information provided in the payslip. In my case the last payslip was actually not a payslip instead it was a settlement slip and I had that also sealed and signed and that was accepted...

Hi Crossrapids, No, I did not provide any thing else other than my Degree certificate. Just for more information, my degree certificate has both English and the local language (kannada) in it. I used the same degree certificate to suffice English language requirement along with the letter from unive...

Hi Andy, Usually the site prompts to create an account when you want to ship something. After you created the login and logged in, did you try to prepare a shipment? For me, when I tried to create a shipment, the first thing it asked was creation of an account or if you already have an account, you ...

I will tell you why I had to do so. Maybe there is a better way but this is what worked out for me. When we prepare a shipment, we must log into an account. I logged into my account and entered the senders information as that of the immigration officer and the Home office address (the place from whe...

Hi Purplepple, I think you have created a login currently. Anyway when you want to ship something, then you will be prompted to create an account and at that time it will ask you your credit card details. Once you have created one account and associated it with you login id, it will use this account...

The account you create is a global one. I created my account from the US FedEx website and could log in through the UK fedEx website. But I used the US FedEx website for all my transactions. Honestly speaking, it should not matter which country website you are booking through as long as it is FedEx ...

I paid around $60 for one way courier. Ofcourse the charge would be different depending on the country. But with so many original documents in it, I felt it was worth the amount.

I am surprised that the forum does not have any posting regarding this information even after almost 2 years since the this particular topic was posted. No offence meant but I feel it is better to put it this information ...

But it is very rare that a degree certificate contains the college name in it. I think if the letter from your college could mention your name, the month and year of passing, the degree you obtained, your registration number, mention that English was the medium of teaching AND that they are affiliat...

Both the companies that I worked for were in India. I put the income I earned when I was working in India and that is what I have claimed for too. I did not prorata since the rules clearly say that there should be no gap between work even if you work in more than one country. I had a break after Feb...

No, it contains only a signature and the seal. The seal is more important that should clearly say the company name. It can be like "For <company name> but that is OK.

My case was not straight forward and hence I needed more information on how to go about the procedure. I was applying from US with the data of ...
