Deal All,

Just want to know if this letter would be enough when applying for ILR.

This is to confirm that Mr. xxx is employed at the xxx, I am aware that xxx is in the process of applying for the permanant residency here in the UK and his employment with xxx is expected to continue indefinetly.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerly
xxx

Can someone let me know if this sounds ok and good enough? i will be applying on 10yr LR and am aware that employment letter is not needed, but if they ask i do want to carry a proof.

Many thanks

Why state that "you know the person is applying . . ." and expected to continue "Indefinitly" -

just state the facts about employment and add that "we expect to continue employing him in the future". Simple.

What is the difference?

I can confirm that Mr XXX has been employed by this company since xxx.

His position is as a XXXX within the YY department. The company regards this position as permanent employment.

His current base salary is Â£nnn. This does not include bonus or any other payment.

Further, this information is given without responsibility or any liability...etc.
[this section is standard HR wording, can vary company to company]

I do hope you find this information satisfactory but please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.

Yours faithfully,

Thanks global gypsy,

I have already got the letter as i mentioned it above, i can get them to change it to exactly how yours was but the one i have is not good? any opinion or ideas welcome.

Your letter doesn't have to be identical to mine, but so long as it has similar content it should be fine. And it helps if it comes from the HR department.
