Many thanks again I hope all people who are having doubts on this condition can now relax and read your reply.

Take care

Thanks for your reply.
I think this letter won't be possible. My ILR is due in July2012, is one year rent record enough (if i start renting from this month to next year)? I am also planning to buy a property would that help?
Cheers

Yes we are living at same address

Hi,

Company has provided me accomdation as I have to travel and I am living rent free.

I am paying council tax for me and my wife.
What would be the documentation required at the time of ILR? I have to show rent going out of my bank account or council tax proof would be enough?

Cheers
Julian
