Documents required for ILR SET(O) - tier 1 general

Hello everyone,

I am about to apply for my ILR and I am slightly confused about the documents required as there doesn't seem to be a consensus about what the absolutely necessary required documents are.

A brief summary of my immigration history

• Entered the UK on Student Visa : Jan 2007

• Post Study Tier 1 visa : Jul 2008

• Tier 1 General Visa 1st issued : 30th July 2010

• Tier 1 General Visa Extension : 21st December 2012

I am 30 years old now. I was 27 when I first received my Tier 1 visa. I have a master's degree which was submitted for my Tier 1 for education points. I am currently employed at a university ( I have been with them since 2008 as a contractor and since 2011 as a permanent employee). My annual salary is over £40,000 but less than £50,000. I am married but I am not applying for a visa for my wife. I am applying for my ILR in person.

• I am intending to submit the following

• 12 Payslips covering 01/06/2014 to 31/06/2015

• Letter from the employer confirming my employment dates as well as my current salary

• Bank statements showing my wages for the above mentioned period

• Letter from employer confirming my annual leave (which is less than 120 days collectively within the last 5 years)

• Letter from myself detailing the absences from the UK when I was employed as a contractor

• Life in the UK Test results

• Passport

• BRP

I also have the following available

• Bank statements of my savings account overseas showing a balance of 2000 pounds(The amount has not changed in the last year) (this has my name but a different address)

• P60 for the last year

• Degree certificate

• Tenancy Agreement / Council tax letter

Are these documents sufficient? What else would I need?

Additionally, On the form where they ask you for your entry date in to the UK - is the the entry date when I first entered the UK or when I received my first Tier 1 visa?

I would be very grateful for any advice / guidance on this matter.

Regards

These two are not required. -

Letter from employer confirming my annual leave (which is less than 120 days collectively within the last 5 years)
Letter from myself detailing the absences from the UK when I was employed as a contractor

Entry date in to the UK = Date of your first entry to UK and NOT the VISA Start Date.

Thank you indianinworld.

Appreciate the advice!
