Questions on Set O online form

aja · Post by **aja** » Mon Mar 11, 2019 12:24 pm

Hello,

I am due to apply ILR in the end of June 2019.

I do have the old paper application form Set O, and i have been trying to answer the questions on it, to ensure i get the answers right well before the actual application.

As the application is now moved online, i assume some of the questions would have changed from the old paper application as well.

Is it fine to start an application online now and fill in the questions ( primarily to get used to the questions) and gather the required supporting documents, but however, delete the application before completing it or booking dates / mnaking payments ?

And start the actual application closer to June date please ?

Thanks

If so, what is your pay each month after income tax and other deductions ?
q) I do have child care vouchers of £242 every month, do i specify the final take home pay that gets credited to my bank account each month or do i add the child care voucher amount as well please ?

Hello,

I am due to apply for ILR next month.
I have requested the HR that i will need 2 seperate letters
1. Document from the sponsor , stating im still required for the foreseeable future.
2. Letter to state paid annual leave traveled outside UK

The HR had got back to me stating that they will give only 1 letter in the below template :
Can you please confirm if this will be fine please ?

Private and Confidential
To whom it may concern
Home Office
(Date)
Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: (Full name, Nationality, Date of Birth)
I wish to confirm that above employee is on (full-time or part time, state as required) permanent
contract which commenced on (employment start date) and is still needed for the same job.
Their current relevant SOC code is (state current SOC). We confirm that (employee’s full
name) is being paid at or above the appropriate rate, receiving an annual salary of (salary).
This salary is based on a regular working week of 37.5 hours. This salary will be paid for the
foreseeable future.
Since this time (employee’s full name) has had the following authorised absences from work:
Annual start date Annual Leave end
date
Number of days
(including
weekends)
Reason/City/Country
If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact a member of the HR team
via xxxxxxxxx

Date Calculation:
1. Visa issue Date : 20/ July/2014
2. Date of Entry to UK : 22/ July/2014
3. 28 Days before Date of entry : 24 - June-2019

1. Assume the earliest i can fill in the online application, make the payment and Submit is 24th June right ?
2. The Date on Employment letter can be issued around 20th June and should be fine ?

3. The bank statement upto 28th May would be fine. As my bank usually generates the statment upto 27/28th each month. So i will be submitting the Statement 1 month before.

4. Payslip of May, which will be issued around 26th of May ?

They simply need to say that your absence from work were approved by them. No need for two letters

Thank you,

The template provided should suffice in that case to meet both employment and absence right ?

zimba · Post by **zimba** » Thu May 23, 2019 4:41 pm

There is no required template. The letter must include what they asked for

Hello Aja,

Sorry to break you this but Tier 2-General visa has no course to public funds. Therefore, you should not claim for any child benefits. Questions need to be answered as honest as you can. Good luck to your application.

Child care vouchers through salary sacrifice are not state benefits!!
