Tier 2 to ILR 5 years route - employer letter

[ntt05r]

Hi all,

I am currently filling out the online application. All makes sense but a little bit puzzled with this requirement paragraph:-

"For the period before you were granted leave as a Tier 2 migrant, documents showing that you met the relevant requirements of the immigration rules. For further information concerning the evidence required, please refer to the Tier 2 migrant policy guidance on our website"

What exactly are the documents I need to submit here? Referring to the Tier 2 migrant policy guidance does not help as it is a big doc.

Help appreciated.

Were you on a different visa type before Tier 2? If Not, you dont need to show anything and this clause is not applicable to you.

No. My 5 years is only on my Tier 2.

I hope it is what you said but i dont see it written that way?

Its absolutely fine. I just received my ILR two days back, and have spent 5 years on Tier 2 as well. I did not provide any details regarding the question you posted. This question is confusing, I agree, however, SETO form is used for various routes including Tier 1 Visa, and sometimes the applicants have held Tier 4 or Tier 1 visas before they switched to Tier 2. In this case, they need to show evidence for visas granted before Tier 2. If you've spent entire duration only on Tier 2 (and not switched from another visa type), you dont need to provide any evidence.

Enclosing a screenshot of my SETO form for your reference.

Hi

My employer has issued a confirmation letter detailing everything i.e. Needed in foreseenable future, soc code, salary ... and absences.

Is one letter ok or it has to be seperate letters - one confirming the absences and one confirming the rest like I have seen in some sucessful cases? My tier 2 has been with only one employer.

One letter is fine.
