Arrived in London Jan 13. Have a new flat, couple of job interviews...
Oh, without credit history or employment, it is hard to rent a flat from agency. I had to pay rent of 6 months all in advance!
One of the jobs I applied to, for which I am interviewing on Monday, asked that I provided proof of legality to work in UK based on the below criteria. I assume I would show items one and two.
"Confirmation of 1 below is required together with either 2 or 3
1. Approval to take employment issued by Work Permits UK
2. A passport or other travel document endorsed to show current leave to enter or remain in the UK and is permitted to take the work permit employment in question.
3. A letter issued by the Home Office to the holder confirming the same "
No where on my HSMP visa does it say "legal to work in UK". But I assume human resources understand what an HSMP visa is! Is my HSMP approval letter the same as items "1" or "3" above? I have no letter from Home Office stating a "right to work".
There are also other documents job seekers can show to prove legality but I have none of them.
When I get my first job, the employer will get me my National Insurance Number, right?
Thanks for reading. And thanks for advice!!!
