Employment letter and absences

Hi,

Does anyone know if submitting a single document (provided by the employer) covering both the employment and absences would be sufficient for ILR application (Tier 2 - 5 year route)? Or would UKVI insist on receiving 2 separate documents instead?

Also, is it essential that the sponsor lists all my absences, or a confirmation that all my absences were in line with my employment and that I had no unpaid leave would be fine?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Luis

One letter is fine as long it has all the required details. Your employer needs to confirm that your absences were authorised from them.

Thanks Cullinan. What they state in the letter is that all the absences mentioned in my ILR application were authorized by them, but they don’t list them explicitly. Do tou think this might be a problem?

Thanks a lot.
