@ Chadha - Have you contacted the HO yet?

yes I did get an exit stamp when I departed from New Delhi. Do yu think they will accept that as proof? Moreover I did send them the P60 for that year, and also a letter from my previous employer confirming that I worked for them from such to such date.

From what I have seearched so far on the internet, there seems to be quite a big varition in the waiting times for ILR based on 5 years work permit.
