As per new policy of Calculating continuous period in the UK – v10.0 Valid from 28 August 2013
My ILR is coming up and I am a case of Tier 2 ICT + Tier 1 G.For Tier 1 General Employee- Absences must be connected to the applicant’s sponsored or permitted employment, or the permitted economic activity being carried out in the UK, for example, business trips or short secondments. This also includes, any paid annual leave which must be assessed on a case by case basis and must be in line with the UK statutory annual leave entitlement.
Evidence in the form of a letter from the employer setting out the reasons for the absences, including annual leave, must be provided.
I changed my job last year and currently a employee, I do not have previous employer letter to submit for my UK absences with my UK ILR application in March.
Excluding Travel start and end date , my no's come out to be 90 days all of which are my annual leave for vacation trips.
Year 1 0 days -Emp 2
Year 2 34 days -Emp 1
Year 3 24 days -Emp 1
Year 4 15 days -Emp 1
Year 5 17 days -Emp 1
After 28 August 2013,
1. Has anyone recently applied for ILR and sucessfully processed ILR without providing Employer letter (Previous or Current) as Evidence stating the reasons for the absences, including annual leave and confirming the leaves were paid.
2. Would Payslips and bank statement be acceptable as alternative proof showing no deductions made of pay (proving all day paid).
3. In absence of letter what to fill in pt. 6.3 in Set(O)
4. Would above leaves be a issue in case of absence of employer letter.
Please share your experiences.
Thanks in advance.
