Payment date versus Salary credit date

[scorpio_besal]

Dear All,

I have a quick question, my salary date on the salary slip is 30 of Nov (salary for Nov 2015) but the payment credit was credited today in my bank account (15 of Dec 2015).

Do I need to have a covering letter for this or any other documentation from the employer when I go for my ILR.

Thanks in advance.

In order to make it safer get the employer letter.

Thanks for the reply.

What should the letter include from the employer.

Thanks for the reply.

What should the letter include from the employer.

Simply minimum shall be your details including NI and address, company name, employment period, Gross, net and tax and if any benefits etc.

I had the same issue, I have used the letter in below format from my employer and got my ILR last week. Regarding name, the company I was employed is different and the company (sister company) that paid my salary is different

Employee "so and so" is employed by us from date and I can confirm the below details are correct etc
Salary Month | Gross | Net | Paid date| Name

I agree this format will be helpful. Try getting on official letter head that would contain the contact details if HO wants to confirm directly with your employer

Thanks a lot guys for your help.

So in my current senario , as per the payslip

Payment date: 30-11-2015


but the actual credit date is 16 of Dec 2015.

So I would ask my employer to write me a letter on the company letter head with contact details of the employer which would say the following

"Employee "so and so" is employed by us from date and I can confirm the below details are correct etc
Salary Month (Nov 2015)
| Gross £XXXX| Net£XXXXX |
payment date 30/11/20015|
Payment credited to the bank account on the 16/12/2015 "

Do they need to mention why the payment was transfered late.

Please note: I called the HMRC contact center today and they confirmed that the tax was recieved by HMRC from my employer as of Nov 30 2015.

If you know the reason (if not normal course of business) then ask your employer to mention in same or another letter or minimum you may explain in your detailed cover letter. But probably if you present every thing in a good manner then less likely that it may be picked up by the case worker. in either way that should not cause any issues.
