Got my ILR - Many thanks to the forum!

[vijier1]

Hi all,
I got my ILR last week…Many thanks to all those people on this forum. I was on WP for 4 yrs and switched to HSMP last year. This forum has helped me a lot with all my queries during my hsmp process as well. Many thanks to you all guys! I am really grateful for all the help!

For my ILR processing - I applied at the PEO Croydon office…and submitted all the documents that I had.
1. WP letters + extension letters
2. Hsmp approval letters
3. bank statements + payslips for 5 yrs
4. P60 s and P45s

Apart from this, I submitted a fax copy of my current employer reference letter. But, the case worker was not very keen to look at the letter. I then collected my passport after 2hrs.

So, many thanks to you all guys!

Hi,
I only had at the max 4 weeks of abesence per year. But, arrival stamping for one of my holidays was missing and so, I got a letter from my employer stating that I was living and working in UK during that period.

Apart from this, I didnt have any break in employment. I had a wp transfer but the break in employment was hardly for 5 days.

Also, the earliest appointment that I culd get was on 26 th June when I phoned up PEO during 1st week of May. So, I went thro' a solicitor who had slots at the PEO Croydon every week. I had to pay a fee for him but as I have travel plans by June end...I had no other option but to pay the solicitor.

hope this helps!

To apply for ILR is it complusary to show the HO 5 yrs of pay slips? I have lost some pay slips. If this is necessary what else can I show them for months where my pay slips are missing?
