i am also applying for ILR with my husband and son next friday at croydon PEO. I was not planning on taking my one year old son along to the PEO so it was reassuring when you said babies dont have to attend the appointment!
I was told that you need to carry the originals and a set of photocopies of all the documents that you submit? Is that true/necessary?
I didn't bring photocopies, only originals. The IO copied the relevant docs herself. If you are applying via post, though, definitely make copies of everything!
also how was the letter of your employer worded?
My employer has stated:
This is to confirm that Ms xyz joined <company name> as <job title> on <exact date of joining> on a permanent basis.
She continues to be employed in the same role. Her current salary is £12345 per annum.
Do you think this is sufficient? If it is not, then I need to get my HR to issue me another letter soon.
Our letters were the same format as yours. The IO didn't even ask for them - she looked at payslips instead. Note: it might (?) make a difference if you are applying on the basis of employment instead of marriage. Our application was for ILR on the basis of marriage. Still, I felt better having something from our employers just in case.
I am not telling my employer why I need the letter because I dont plan on telling them that I have ILR after I get it. Or is it a must to inform your employer about applying for ILR?
I don't think there is any requirement to inform your employer about your new status. Of course, if your employer has sponsored a work permit for you, they might appreciate knowing about it. I think it would depend on how you get your ILR (work vs. marriage/other).
Good luck!
I appreciate your response. Thanks a lot.
Who got the best score on the uK test?rajumr wrote:Hello sharkish,
They told me that my wife needed to attend along with me, but NOT my little son. Since my son was too young to be left with others, we took him to the PEO.
I have attached the photographs of myself and my dependents using paper clips to the relevant pages in the application.
Hope this helps
cheers

Please can someone assist me on this. I am on WP and preparing to apply for ILR (5 yrs WP)in a months time. I am currently working with my employer from last 3 years on WP which was filed for company <ABC Ltd.>. Within 1.5 years time company ABC was taken over by a another BIG company <XYZ Ltd.>. Company ABC is still functioning and listed in Companies house website but the finance and HR dept are operated under the main company letter head i.e. XZY and hence from last 1.5 yrs I get all my pay slip and official letter in the new company letter head i.e.<XYZ Ltd>.rajumr wrote:Hello Mama,
I think the letter you got from your employer should be sufficient.
Here is the format of the letter that I got from my employer.
"To whom it may concern:
I can confirm that <full name> is employed by <company name> and has been since <starting date of employment>. He is employed by us on a permanent basis and there are no plans which would affect this status. Mr. Mohanapu is employed in the capacity of <position>. His current gross annual salary is <salary>.
We fully support Mr. Mohanapu's application for ILR. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require further information regarding his employment with us."
BTW, I carried all originals to PEO. I didn't have any photocopies of the documents.
All the best
cheers
