Dear all,
I'm facing a difficult situation with my plan for an ILR application, and would appreciate any thoughts you kind folks could share.
I entered the UK on 2 June 2009 on a Tier 2 (General) visa which was valid till 30.11.2010. That employment ended on 30.09.2010. On 23.11.2010, I switched to a Tier 1 (General) visa. I'm planning to apply for ILR in June 2014.
On the Immigration Rule Part 6A, Section: 245CD-SD Specified documents, it says that I should supply:
"For periods where the applicant was in employment in the UK, a letter from the employer detailing the purpose and period of absences in connection with the employment, including periods of annual leave."
This seems a little overkill. My past employers said they can't confirm dates of when I took holidays and so on.
On the other hand, the link provided in this board: http://www.immigrationboards.com/indefi ... 52143.html
seems much more sensible, in just confirming employment and some general details.
Importantly, I am well below the 180 threshold, in fact well within my annual holiday entitlement (~20 days) when adding up my total absence from the UK in each year.
My question is: does the Home Office truly expect employers to give details of each holiday taken abroad by me? It's a little frustrating, as I don't expect past employers to keep record of this to be able to confirm the holidays I've taken.
Please help!
