Above google led official quote I quoted at several threads which only applicable where the employer has been given sufficient proof of illness like from hospital/gp who in response confirm it on employer letter pacifically addressing to ukvi.
6. In respect of statutory or contractual sick pay in the UK all of the following must
be provided:
(a) Personal bank statements corresponding to the same period(s) as the payslips at
paragraph 6(b), showing that the salary has been paid into an account in the name of
the person or in the name of the person and their partner jointly.
(b) Payslips covering:
(i) a period of 6 months prior to the date of application or to the commencement of the
sick leave, if the applicant has been employed by their current employer for at least 6
months (and where paragraph 13(b) does not apply); or
(ii) any period of salaried employment in the period of 12 months prior to the date of
application or to the commencement of the sick leave, if the applicant has been
employed by their current employer for less than 6 months (or at least 6 months but the
person does not rely on paragraph 13(a)).
(c) A letter from employer confirming:
(i) the length of the person's employment;
(ii)the gross annual salary and the period over which it has been paid at this level; (iii)
that the person is in receipt of statutory or contractual sick pay; and (iv) the date of
commencement of the sick leave.
Note:As mentioned above that without illness evidence with employer confirmation above quote won't apply
The opinion expressed as above is neither a professional advice nor contesting/competing to other member's opinion/advice.
