ILR Success

Post by hari15 » Sat Aug 29, 2009 8:29 pm

Today I got ILR in Croydon (Saturday appointment) under WP + HSMP 5 years category

Whole process is very simple and nice

In Initial checklist, the person asked for 5 years P60, I told I have just 3, But showed 5 years bank statement instead. so make sure that you have something to proove that you are here for 5 years either p60 / bank statement / letter from employer. (But atleast 1 p60 is necessary for initial validation)

the person who did Final validation is so nice. he didnt asked anything other than 3 months bank statement / salary slip, letter from employer, previous workpermits & KOL.

all process completed for me in 2 hours

All the best for rest of ILR applicants

Thanks,
If you have 5 years of P60 thats more than enough. Just past 3 months bank stetement is sufficient. Old bankstatements may be required only if you dont have all 5 years of P60

Documents required for you are
1. 5 years P60
2. 3 months bank statements
4. past 3 months salary slip
5. Letter from current employer (for tier-1 this is not mandatory, but have this on safer side)
6. Previous workpermnits & Tier-1 approval letter from home office
7. Letter from previous employers when you are on work permit (any kind of letter like experience letter / relieving letter)
8. Marriage certificate original
9. If you have any child, its birth certificate
10. KOL pass certificates

Thats it

above this take your house rental agreement (or) mortgage documents (or) Council tax bill for safer side

Hi Hari,

Congrats for getting ILR.

Do you have any idea whether we need letter from Employer when on WP?...I came here on WP (2 yrs) + HSMP (2 yrs) + Tier-1 now, I read some where that when ILR is through WP router, you need letter from employer to state that you are still required for the company?

I am working for same company, but just wondering whether I need letter or not?

Thanks,
VT

Hi Hari,

Thank you, sorry for not replying early. your list is perfect ( 4wp+1 Tier1) with dependant.
I got ILR from sheffield PEO yesterday.

Would like to share my experience here
Our appointment is at 12:45 , but we reached PEO by 10:30 and completed the security checks.
also reported at reception counter well before, they assigned us a token No. but we are exactly called for initial verification at 12:45 , once the initial verification(application and passports) successful, we were asked to pay the ILR fee. after this we waited till 3 PM .
Case worker called us, and asked for the following documents,

1) The First WP original document (entry clearence)
2) bank statement (did't ask for how many moths, but I gave for 6 months),
3) payslips, (did't ask for how many moths, but I gave for 6 months),
4) Emp Ref. letter
5) Life in UK pass documents

She verified the 2 months pay slips and compared with bank statement entries and she verified the employment ref.letter and the initial WP document.

After this, case worker told us , we need to make some background check's and it will take an hour or and half, if your case is succesfull will give you visa's other wise I will discuss with you. but clued us nothing to worry (with smile).

At 5:30 reception called us and returned back our passports,
We got ILR stamped on it!!!! :D

Case worker is good and she is making polite conversation. she asked us "would you like to know your scores in life in UK". we surprised , because we thought we can never know our scores.
It's all good experience, though we waited morning to 10:30 to 5:30.
Sheffield PEO is very busy. There is a big queue out side the office .

Once again thanks to all who is providing important information in this forum.

Hi,

If you have all payslips and supporting bank statements ,it will be fine for those missing P60's.

at least you must have latest p60 on a safer side. because some times it depends on the case worker.

Alll the best

Yes, the case worker comparing the salary on payslip with bankstament entries. and she told the same.

She checked initial WP on a seperate note.
