SET O Time Outside the Country

esmyth13 · Post by **esmyth13** » Thu Jul 16, 2020 10:01 am

Hi all,

I am in the process of prepping my SET O application (Visa expires end of August) and my employer (school) has agreed to pay for/sponsor my application.
I am wondering if they will need to sign any documents to verify they are paying for me. I have seen the Consent documents to sign, but I don't think that applies to my employer paying for the application.

Can anyone help clear this up for me?
Many thanks in advance.

No, the consent forms have nothing to do with who pays the fee.

You simply put the relevant bank/credit card details in to pay the fee.

Ah brilliant. That is what I assumed. Thank for you for the clarification. One less stress to tick off the list!

Hi all,

Working on my SET O application and just wanting to know if I need to provide all the dates I was outside of the UK. I can't seem to find it in the application. Does a letter from my employer (School) need to mention the times I went to visit family back in Canada or a week long trip to Germany for example?
Just trying to get my ducks in a row.

Thank you in advance.

You need to list ALL absences in the form. The employer letter re absence is mandatory, example in link below. The letter doesn't have to state the level of detail for each of your trips.
