Ancestral ILR - Trivial Questions

Post by DaveDzaldn » Fri Jul 05, 2019 11:23 am

Hi All,

I know that the questions I am about to ask may seem trivial, but I was hoping to have my mind put at ease as I dont have another 3K to spare. Please can i have advise from members and their experience.

My Ancestral Visa runs out on 31 July 2019.

Travel History

There have been a couple of trips into Europe where I did not get a stamp in my passport from exiting UK, one was a Ferry crossing and the other was a Eurotunnel crossing. Do i need to submit details of flights or ferry trips with my application or do I just simply declare.

Employment History/Finances

Unfortunately, I have just recently lost my job as of the end of June, however I am now doing agency crewing/labour work full time and invoicing the agency via UTR. I have been working for the same agency for upwards of 3 years on a part time and full time basis. I have not yet self declared for the last financial year(i do not have to until January), as such I am going to submit the following:

-Notice of termination of employment
-All payslips, p45s,p60s I have.
-Initial letter from HMRC with my UTR number from 2 years ago
-A letter from the company I "contract for"
-My most recent timesheets and invoices
-1 year bank statements

On another note, when it asks on the form about "your pay each month after income tax and £1600
other deductions? (in GBP)" I had to just enter a value, however as a contractor it is variable - is this a problem?

Do you guys thing the above will be an issue?

Please advise.

No. Just list your absence in the form where asked.

Thank you for your repose Char. I may even submit today in that case.

My bank account is overdrawn, and my payslips will be printed.

Will this be ok?

Ho is only interested in your earnings and work record.

Payslips if printed online ones need to be stamped and signed by your employer or they need to provide a letter authenticating them.

Hi,

I have printed all my p60s and p45s, but they are HMRC Docs. Can these validate the payslips?

The reason I ask is because I have 7 previous employers - all very unhelpful. I doubt I will get these authenticated before the deadline.

I have phoned HMRC and asked for a complete employment history, but this will take weeks.

You only need the most recent employment payslips.

You also only need 5 years evidence for ilr based in ancestry.

Appointment is booked in Croydon for 10 July and most recent company is not playing ball.

Would a Notice of Termination of Employment letter spelling out entitlements act as attestant?
