Hi,
I am filling SET(O) and on page 7
1.10 Home Office reference if you have one
I have two references, one was on HSMP letter for entry clearance and the other is on letter when I got FLR as Tier-1 (G).

Thanks Arif
As I got no reply from anyone. I too was thinking to use the latest one.
What is your answer of question 7 on page 37?
Have you had your fingerprints taken.....
Actually my fingerprints were taken when I applied for entry clearance in Pakistan but I don't remeber the exact date. All I remember is that it was between Aug 2007 to Oct 2007. |

I am applying for ILR next month.
I received all my salary slips in pdf format and normally print them myself. Similarly the employer provided me employment letter on Ms word letter head and its not pre printed.
I requested my boss to stamp the salary slip but they told me that they don't have any stamp so they can't do it.
Similarly my council tax, gas, electricity bills are online.
Do home office ask for stamp & sign on every online document? And what is the alternative if we are unable to do this?
Thanks |

Thanks innocentdevil
The problem here is that my company don't have any pre printed letter head. They can provide me letter with the company name, logo address etc in header but it would be printed from MSWord and not a proper pre printed letter head.
Would that be accepted by Homeoffice? |

that should be fine. I had the same issue, there wasn't a pre printed letter head and they have word document which contained the letter head, address etc. i posted my extension application and every payslip was signed by hr finance person and a letter was also provided.
can't see any issues with that |

Hello again,
I asked my council and energy provider to send me the last few year bills and they provided me the printout of the PDF bills that I can already view/print online. I think now the companies are not using the old style of bills anymore.
I am a bit worried about this as the main cohabitation docs that I have are PDF printouts. Can anyone please confirm if HO would accept these bills? What's experience of people already applied for ILR? |

Posted: Tue Sep 25, 2012 12:19 pm Post subject: P60 Issue |
|
|
Hi,
I am on HSMP 2 Year + Tier1(G) 3 Year.
I arrived in Uk in dec 2007 and started job in Jan 2008. Since then I changed a job. My previous employer didn't provided me P60 for the period Jan 2008 to Apr 2008. So after reading the thread http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=58599 I asked HMRC to provide me employment history.
After getting my employment history I amazed to see that they don't have my record for the period Jan 2008 to Apr 2008. I remember I asked my previous employer many times but they told me that it is lost. Now I have realised that they deducted my tax for that period but didn't deposited to HMRC. I think they saved the money as first 5000 are exempted from tax. My old employer is no more in business. I do have payslips for that period.
1. Can members please suggest me if that could create any problem for me?
2. Can I apply using P60 I have in hand? i.e. from May 2008 till Apr 2012
3. Should I report to HMRC this issue?
(Note to moderator: I posted this separate thread as I think it is an important issue and I need advice from seniors please) |

as long as you have salary slips and bank statements which corroborate with each other showing that you paid tax then you have nothing to worry about.
if the employer is deducting tax but not passing it on then it is employer's responsibility not yours. |

Hi nmm: On your category you need to show 12 months earning history out of preceding 15 months. you have pay slips and bank statements as proof for earning. Why you thinking about P60. P60 is necessary for those who wants to show P60 as proof of earnings also on that case claming periods must be tied in with tax year (April to March) otherwise P60 is no good/ confusing for this route (hsmp 2yr+tier1 3Yr).
I saw many people submitted P60 with their documents by themself but Cw did not asked for this documen and concentrate neither. |

Hi Arif,
I think I need P60 for the requirement 11G on Page 42 of SET(O), Please correct me if I am wrong.
| Quote: |
11G- Highly skilled migrant If you are applying for indefinite leave to remain on completing 5 years’ continuous stay in the UK under the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP) and other appropriate categories, in addition to the relevant documents in 11A, you must provide the following:
[] If you are employed, document(s) showing your economic activity and your personal earnings during your stay in the UK.

For Hsmp 2trs +Tier 1 3yrs we need to fill section 11A and 11L.
Did you explain your council the fact and why you need the letter for. Gp also use full and can provide a letter stating that you and your wife is registered from date xx/ xx/xxxx and address and till now both of you registered on that GP.
I am with E on energy sypplier and I requested to supply all bills covering last two years. Though I offered them that they can charge for this service but did not charge. I think british gas will do the same.
Ask for a insurance quate for both of your name, any insurance. At least you will get a letter from them.
Apply for credit card. Think some others. |
