Gap before start new job/ notice

Post by vanilaspice » Wed Jul 12, 2023 5:29 pm

Hi!
I got fired on skilled worker in May. (I received a termination letter stated that last day is middle of June)
And my employer gave me some time of notice period + paid holidays + a month of unpaid holiday so I can have more time to find a new sponsor. They haven’t reported Home Office yet.

I found a new job and now I received a confirmation of permission email from Home Office recently.

Now I’m going to tell my old employer that they can report the end of employment.

I have few questions.

1. It wouldn’t be any issue if my old employer report Home Office now after I’m granted new visa? (Even if I got a termination letter in May)

2. Is it okay if there’s some gap before I start new job? (My start date on new CoS is 21 July and I haven’t received BRP yet. )
If my old employer report Home Office that my last day is end of July and I start new job one week later. One week gap is okay?

3. My plan is applying ILR after skilled worker visa. Having a record of being fired could affect on getting ILR?

Any advice would be appreciated!
Thank you very much!

1. Probably not, as long as your leave of absence was less then 4 weeks.
2. Probably not
3. No

No issues.

These "gaps" between jobs are not an issue.
