ILR- Employer Letter Clarification

chitrak · Post by **chitrak** » Thu Aug 23, 2007 6:45 am

I propose to immediately submit my application in SET(O) form for ILR, since I have just completed 5 years of employment with work permit in UK.
The letter given by my employer has stated the dates I am employed from and to instead of stating that I am still needed, as mentioned in the application form for ILR.
However the "to" date is upto September 2008.
Will that letter be sufficient, or should the letter specifically mention that " she is still needed"?
Kindly clarify.
Chitra

NO because they want to know how you plan to support yourself after ILR. Go back and get the letter changed

Thank you for the posted reply.
Since the letter states that my employment is upto September 2008, is it not obvious that I am still needed, and that after ILR also i will be getting salary from that job.
Please clarify.

I think that it will be ok like that. It is always better to be vague and say still needed. To have an end date is just weird to me when you have already worked for the employer for a number of years, that he would write its just one year more unless it is more like a contractor job/

It is a contracted job for 2 years, and not a regular job. I have been on contracted jobs only all these years, but without any break.
Does that change the situation?

No. I came on a contracted job, and later changed jobs.

Hello,

No good. Ideally, your employer shold say that that you are still needed and they wish to employ you for a foreseable future...

Does it mean that if the employer refuses to mention in the leter specifically the words "she is still needed", my application will be rejected?
The fact that the letter dated August 21st, 2007 mentions that my employment is from October 2006 to September 2008, and the fact that i am still employed implies clearly that I am still needed.
