Hi all,
I have few questions regarding filling the ILR set(o) 5 year General Tier 2 migrant form.
1. When did you first enter the UK?
I came to UK in Sep 2010 for my Masters on Tier 4 Student visa.
Got my PSW in Feb 2012
Got my Tier 2 General in Dec 2013.
Should the date here be the first time I entered UK or Should it be date of starting of Tier 2 Visa?
2. Dates of Absence from UK?
Assuming I provide the date of entry as Sep 2010. I still have to only provide date of absence from Dec 2013 to Present?
I wouldn't have to provide absence details before starting of 5 year period of my Tier 2 visa?
3. Order of Absence.
Should the entry in the form in chronological order?
I think I put one of the early entries last in the form, should I change that?
4. Old passport details?
I have renewed my passport in Nov 2018 and my old passport have all the stamps from all the travel etc. But I don't see any fields in form to fill details of old passport. I am sure, they would need old passport but there is no mention of it, so I am confused if I have missed something in the form?
5. Letter from employers
I have changed my job last year in Feb, so 4 years of my tier 2 visa period is with my old employer. While getting the letter from my previous employer. Do they need to mention about salary rates, SOC requirement etc?
Should letter of absence of leave say that I have taken leave only starting from start of my Tier 2 visa(Dec 2013) to end of my employment? or should it have details of all absence when I was employed with them?
Should letter mention that initial period of my employment was based on PSW visa and it changed to tier 2 in Dec 2013?
6. Gap between jobs.
I have 15 days gap between joining my new employer and leaving old employer. Does it need to be accounted for?
Do I need to mention it somewhere? or Do I need to get some kind of document from my current or old employer about it?
7. Supporting document for leave to remain before tier 2.
One of the supporting document required from the form is:
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
I am assuming by this they mean documents like old Biometric Card from PSW and Sticker for Tier 4 visa?
Is that correct?
I suppose the photocopy of old BRP card should do?
Thank you.
