Why would HSMP situation would be fundamentally different from the one with work permit? Redundancy period means that you were effectively given notice, however if at the time of application you STILL there, then I can't see why this should be illegitimate in any way - you are still legally employed and it should be possible to obtain the letter to that effect that at the time of writing that letter you WERE employed.ND wrote:If you switch to HSMP u will defnitely get ILR .
Form SET (ILR) states the following in guidance section 7B: "If you are applying as a work permit holder, document(s) from your employer confirming that your employment with them is continuing." In my view "continuing" in this case does mean employer should state you current status, which if employed is indeed "continuing" in regards to original date of workpermit.Cosmopol wrote:Cosmopol wrote:they are also looking for a letter from current employer, confirming that they intend to keep your employed. That's where you may have problems. Just in case, why don't you start looking for a new company to go with.
I agree, but I am still curious whether being in work permit employment at the time of application for ILR is sufficient. I think it is since all that should matter is the fact that the person actually did work 4 years and even if person was given notice that will expire AFTER ILR application it should not be used as excuse to deny application.Cosmopol wrote:I guess, that's why HSMP is better than WP - gives broader options.
Employment is continueing if that guy is employed for just one day after application date. There is no legal requirement to keep employing guy for X months, and in theory notice can be given next day after ILR, even by the person in question.Gmmi wrote:I wish Atw is right! I don't see any problem getting a employer letter. My only concern is that Does HO contact employer to confirm continuation of employment?
Hi Gmmiformat/text of your employer letter
Hi Gmmi,Gmmi wrote:I am going into a situation where my employer is planning to redundent me (including some other employees) in start of next year. I will be completing 4 years on WP by 12th April 2005.
My question is if they give me three month notice period in Jan 2005 then in theory I will be with them till end March or early April. Can I apply for ILR application on 12th March '05 on the basis of 3 years and 11 months criteria, although I will have got Redundancy Notice Period.
Is any one has same kind of experience?
