Question about Payslip requirement

Hi!
I am a Filipina and recently married to a Dutch guy living and working in Ireland for a little over a year now. I hope to apply for a visa this february to join him in Ireland.

our situation is this:
1. he was previously employed with IBM in dublin, but IBM moved their office to greenock scotland last november. they were given options to get transferred, or otherwise, get paid and end their contract.

2. he opted not to go to greenock, and preferred to be paid at the end of his contract last november.

3. he was on approved vacation leave from the first week of november until the end of his contract and that was his last payslip - with the bonus option given to him.

4. since first week of november, he was already here in the philippines for our wedding, and was on vacation until december.

5. he started his new contract with a new company first week of january this year, as a permanent employee.


my question is this: would it be a problem if we present his January 2008 payslip, together with his October - November 2007 payslips, in compliance with the 3 months payslips required in visa application? the requirement said, "consecutive" payslips, but he was on vacation last december with me, because his new contract would only start in january.

he has savings accounts both in dublin and in holland though, and some stock certificates in holland to further evidence his financial capacity.

i am very worried about this, as i don't want to take chances. but on the other hand, i don't want to wait much longer, or else the irish govt might impose some new immigration laws anytime.

please help, anybody who has been in the same situation us ours.

thank you very much!

I am assuming you are applying for a spouse visa? Don't worry the job change shouldnt be an issue.Try to get a letter from his new employer stating his salary and how long he has been in employment. Submitting his payslips from his old job won't hurt either. Even minimal savings in the bank statement should be fine.

thanks archigabe!
he just started this january, and we wanted to apply for the spouse visa on the first week of february, we're just waiting for the new payslip for january. and another thing, my husband just found out that his new company don't give out hardcopy of payslip, but they can only view it online. can he print it out, and have it authenticated by the philippine consul in dublin?

and another concern, his apartment contract don't state the exact area of the 3-bedroom apartment he lives with another male colleague. is it necessary that the landlord make a letter confirming the size of the apartment, and there are no objections to the other occupant that i'd go live with them soon? i think i read it somewhere as some suggestion.

thanks so much for your advice!

Try to get a letter from his new employer stating his salary and job description.He can have his payslips printed out and submit his old P60's as well.
A rental contract from his landlord should be fine.

thanks!
when do you get your 2007 P60? last year it was around february, is that so every year? we have his 2006 P60, and tax credits from last year...

thank you for your patience!

I think it's sometime around february or march. im sure others on this board will have more info.

do you think we can submit our visa application without the new P60, but only the tax credits from last year? we have his job contract too, and payslips.
thanks!

It think it would be a good idea to submit whatever paperwork you might have and not hold anything back if you think it's relevant.

whew. thank you so much!
