Some queries about ILR

[ilr_trauma]

Hi,
I am planning to apply for ILR coming week. I am on work visa for 7 years 1 month (initially on work permit and since nov 2008 on tier 1 General. But with 13 months absence in 2010
I have few queries.

1. If i have already paid fees online what should i fill in payment page.

2. Section 11 - My first 2 years were on work permit and next 3 years on Tier 1, then Which of the subsections of section 11 I should be filling in apart from 11A. I am confused between 11C (not requiring work permit as I am on Tier 1 General) and 11G (Highly skilled migrants under HSMP and other categories)

3. I have more than 180 days of absence in 5 years. 83 of them included vacations to home country outside europe on paid annual leaves. For rest of absence I am claiming on compassionate reasons. Do I need to give any evidence for 83 days absence. I have changed many jobs in between and it is hard to get evidence from ex-employers.

4. If there are some family situations which can help in getting ILR, should I mention that in section 8B (SECTION 8B- OTHER INFORMATION
Is there any other information concerning you or your family which you wish to be considered as part of
your application? )

5. (Not so important query)
Section 9 - 4A. Do I need to give breakup of each month? I thought of having 2 entries only by consolidating periods employer wise.

6. I don't have originals of salary slips, bank statements and rent agreement of period earlier than last 1.5 years. I forgot that in my home country. Will that be a cause of concern? I will get scanned copies soon of these documents.

7. My wife came to live with me in March 2012. It is not 2 years complete. She was away because of pregnancy and some other medical reasons. Can I claim cohabitation based on 1 year 7 months period. I have rent agreement since March 2012 where her name is written as permitted occupant. Water bill with her name mentioned in it. I might also get letter from NHS next week.
