from my observation, you will be asked to show:
*all your work permits covering the time you were on WP
*latest 3 payslips (I would advise you to take with you as many as you have)
* latest 3 months bank statements (again my advise is to take with you at least 6 months)
*Letter from current employer stating you are still needed in your current role (must have )
If you have all the above documents and at least 1 latest P60 you should be fine. Why waste money on solicitor? You will get ILR based on documents you have. Good to have solicitor if case is not straight forward. In your case I dont see what solicitor will be doing apart from submitting YOUR documents behalf of you.
Rest is your choice.....
I recently applied for ILR under HSMP JR. Never been on WP. First thing case worker asked was employer's letter and it was not returned back.Markie wrote:he's now in Tier 1 so I don't think the letter from employer is required (see sec 9 Tier 1 visa holders of the form) - Tier 1 need only to show proof of economic activity. Existing WP holders do require letter from employer.
bring your UKBA original letters with you:
- switched from WP to HSMP and
- switched from HSMP to Tier 1 .
if it is a straight forward case - just switching visa categories; drop your solicitor option.

hi, i think you should be ok. P45 also states the income you earned with that employer so the HO will be ok as far as your first year is concerned (of course if they do ask for those details).shs213 wrote:Hi All, thanks for all your responses...
my qualifying five years run from July 2005 - June 2010.
I don't have the P60 ending 31st March 2006. Also unfortunately I don't have any payslips for the first year.
By the time I apply for ILR, I will have P60s for;
Mar-2007
Mar-2008
Mar-2009
Mar-20010 - I am expcting this in due course...
I can get a letter from the current employer - no problem...
I have the last 24 months payslips + Bank statments - so no problem in providing ample payslips + bank statements...
I have all the visas in my Passport and can take all the UKBA letters they issued during that time period.
As I am applying for ILR from Tier one, I too don't see an issue with the missing P60...
BUT
Myt fear is, if they ask any proof for the first year of my qualifiying 5 years - this is also the period i was on WP - I don't have any supporting documents apart from the P45 they issued when I left the company.
I can get a letter from the employer confirming I worked for them during that period and can show evidence of the WP. I can check with my bank if they can issue my bank statments from five years ago, but i doubt it.
I hope you get my situ...
I hope HO will only be interested in what I have been doing in the last couple of years and not worry what I was doing in 2005...
What are your thoughts?
I am thinking of dropping the solicitor all together - thanks to you guys
