I was granted WorkPermit visa on 1st November 2007. In 2008 I applied for HSMP which was refused due to lack of fund in my bank account. However, HO mentioned as I had work permit for 5 years already so I was allowed to stay and work in this country. I did not lose my job or anything. I just wanted to apply as I had the points needed(didn't realise i was 20 cuid short in one month).

I am applying in person for ILR on 22nd October. Is that going to cause any problem?

Many thanks

I am a work permit holder working for the same company.
Do I need to produce an xls document showing my absence and get that signed by my employer?

Thanks

You need to list your absences in the SET(O) form as explained in the form/guidance. Justification by the employer will only be required if you have business/work related absences which result in you exceeding the allowed theshold of 180 days with any single absence of more than 90 days.

Could someone help me with this part of the form?
My salary is: £30,391.00
How shall I calculate the following two questions?

Current rate of Pay (as stated in the Codes of Practice
– hourly rate or annual salary)

Number of hours this salary is based on

Number of weekly hours = 36
I also get 25 days paid holidays a year.

I chose 3131 as my soc code.

[brian78]

you have to write down the annual salary as it appears for the SOC code in the UKBA list which is

hourly rate x 37.5hrs x 52 weeks

the number of hours salary based on is 52x37.5hrs ( 1950)

[brian78]

first you choose your soc code
then check in the soc list the hourly rate and do the calculation.
then you compare it with yours

[brian78]

yes. you still put 52 weeks. because you get paid for those holiday so it comes up to the total.

[brian78]

on the application form. it is the salary in the SOC code list which should be written.

your salary should only be on the part where it says, what is your income before tax. ( can't remember which page though)

[brian78]

the hourly rate is as per the SOC code, for the SOC job, not your actual salary.

your actual net salary is only needed in section 5.3

the rest of SOC, hourly and yearly is from the SOC list based on 37.5hrs.

nowhere on the form, do you have to put your actual hours

cheers
