Got ILR (Tier-1 )13/08 at Croydon & Cover Letter
Posted: Tue Aug 13, 2013 1:14 pm
Thanks to everyone on this forum who helped me getting my visa. I got my ILR today without any hassle and without any interaction with case worker. i have used my permanent salary and never mention that i am working as a contracter now.. Which means if you are out of job and have some balance in account it should be fine. They probably don't bother .
