Hi,
Sorry here are my deets...
I am applying under HSMP (approved before 6th Nov 2006) I was on a WP frm 2005-2006 break from Oct-06 to March 07 (medical leave) FLR stamped in Jan 07 to Jan 09, Tier 1 from Jan 09 to Jan 2012.
5 month gap was an unpaid leave (medical emergency) I had a surgery in India I have letters from employer and doctor.
Thanks.
Did you have a valid WP during your medical leave? Did that WP overlap with your HSMP stamp?
If yes to both questions, you should be OK with the gap.
You don't need the whole 5 years' bank statements. Just the last 12 months (maybe even 3-6 months but I submitted 12).
Ideally, send P60s for all 5 years then payslips from time not covered by P60s.
Letters from current and previous employers with the dates and salary details are important.
It shouldn't weigh 2kg. You need to trim down your documents. It will make your application look more complicated than it is. I think mine was under 500g without the set(O) application form (which is heavy).
Thanks a lot for your reply and the answer is yes to both ques.
My WP was valid until Jan 15th 07, I got my HSMP stamped on Jan 11th 07. I got the letter from employer that I was working until my return, but I left the company after I came back and was out of employment for a month, then started working from April-07 till date.
one of my P45s from my prev employer states that my last date of work was 13th Oct (2 days before I left on medical leave) do you suggest including that?
Doesn't that give a negative impression that my employment stopped in Oct-06 (before I went on my Med-leave?
I have another P45 from April 07 to May 07 (temp employment)
since May 07 I have been on a perm work and have P60 for 2007 to 08.
Also have a P60 from 2005 to 2006.
What do you reckon?
Thanks.
