I am preparing for my ILR application, Just wanted to run by my case for some feedback…Please let me know if you think I have prepared enough and what I need to look at [if at all]
Visa History
Sep 2003: Came to the UK as Student
July 2005: Granted WP – it was in country stamping [ILR clock starts]
June 2006: Left employer
I have the P45 to confirm the time I left - but misplaced the Payslips /P60 issued in this period.
June 2006: HSMP
Married in 2007 and wife joined as dependant in 2008.
Self employed from June 2006 to Feb 2008
Since Feb 2008 to-date I have been in permanent employment – between two companies.
June 2008: Tier #1 for Main and dependant
June 2010: Eligible for ILR = 1WP+2HSMP+1Tier#1
I am planning to provide below, unless advised otherwise
1. WP letter they issued back in 2005
2. P45 – issued in June 2006
3. P60 – April 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 [Awaiting by post]
4. Payslips + Bank statements for the last 6 months…
5. Letter from Employer
6. Covering letter
7. Schedule with absent days
8. HSMP Approval letter from 2006
Back up documents
1. More Payslips + Bank statements – in total covering last 12 months
2. Marriage certificate from home country, written in native language and in English
3. Council tax / Joint bank account statement.
4. All P45 issued for the period in scope.
Worries
1. I remember there was a letter with Tier#1 visa in 2008 – I can’t seem to find this.
2. P60 issued in April 2006 is missing plus I don’t have any payslips in my WP year. As I changed banks, I don’t have bank statements too.
3. The earnings in some P60 show misleading earnings. This is because I moved jobs and P60 show “earned in this employmentâ€
