letter from employer

[atier2guy]

Hi guys, quick question:

For ILR on Tier2 general, the requirement is a letter from employer regarding absences and another regarding confirmation of job & pay & employee still being needed.

Is it ok if the employer provides just one letter stating both absences and job details? Or do they have to be separate?

A second question too if I may:
my friend is applying on May 27. Her bank statement arrives around the 29 every month, but covers the period up to the 19 of the previous month.
What to do in that case besides a later booking? the statement has to be 30 days old. But by the 27 she won't have the statement yet, and the previous statement (although received within past 30 days) is dated 19 of the previous month (so more than 30 days).
The bank can probably print it out, but I'm sure they do not stamp (I myself tried to get one stamped last year and they refused). Would the home office accept a statement printed by the bank (not online), but not stamped?

1. It is ok to provide just one letter.
2. If the bank cannot stamp the statements there should be a sign there that the statement was printed in the bank branch. Home Office might accept it if your friend will clarify it in a cover letter. Alternatively, and safer way - is to visit few different branches, so one of them will probably be able to stamp the printed statement.
