Are P60s mandatory for T1(G) setllement applicants?

[balak2]

Are P60s mandatory for Tier 1(G) settlement applicants? I believe it is not mandatory but would like this to be confirmed. Do failure to provide these documents result in a rejection of the application?

Also, is there any limit in the 5 year period for Tier 1(G) applicants where they have not been employed. Say, will it create a problem if the applicant has not been working for around 20 months in the past 5 years?

Not mandatory.They might ask for P60 if they find you earning dodgy.

Also, is there any limit in the 5 year period for Tier 1(G) applicants where they have not been employed. Say, will it create a problem if the applicant has not been working for around 20 months in the past 5 years?

Not mandatory.As long as you are able to get required point then you are fine.

Dont worry, HO can access HMRC records to verify every penny earned and tax paid / not paid easily.

Showing a P60 /Statement of Earnings Employment History is good and helps the case faster.

Even though there is no case of economic activity to be shown for Tier 1(General), I have heard that they could still deny the application. Is that true?

My case is an extreme one in that I have not been working for 20 months.....even though I have been able to make 2 successful extensions. Even for the ILR application, I have sufficient points but quite unsure of whether they will look into the employment history and earnings for 5 years to make a final decision on the case.
