Re: MOST URGENT SOS PLEASE HURRY UP BEFORE I LOST MY SLOT

I don't have experience of Glasgow PEO. According to rules if one PEO is accepting such application then other PEOs should accept too. If for some reason you are confused then book the appointment in next nearest PEO.

Get a letter from employer confirming this. Ask the employer to explain why it was deposited by cheque. You should be fine if you have employer letter.
