Absence/Leave Letter

Hi Guys,
I’ve been working for the same organisation since 2008.
Since I joined this organisation, I’ve always taken my annual without informing my employers what I do with my leave days – of course this was not a requirement in my Employment Contract.
I’m due to apply for ILR shortly and just wondering if a letter from my employer in below format (plus details of my absence from the UK) would be sufficient.

Thank you for responding.
===============================================
To Whom It May Concern,

I write to confirm that [APPLICANT NAME] is currently employed by [COMPANY NAME] as a [DESIGNATION] at the address indicated in this letter. I can also confirm that [APPLICANT NAME] has been employed continuously by [COMPANY NAME] since
[DATE OF EMPLOYMENT] and he is entitled to [NO OF DAYS] annual leave per year in which he can use in any way he chooses. As his employer [COMPANY NAME] do not require the reason for the booked annual leave.

Should you require further information please contact the Human Resources Department within [COMPANY NAME]

Yours Sincerely,


XYZ
Human Resources Manager

My letter also stated that I did not take any additional unpaid leave during my employment and that I did not leave the UK for any work related responsibilities.

Hi All,

My ILR application was approved at Liverpool PEO today.

The process took just 2 hours and my absence letter was in the above format.

I made payment (+ 1 dependant), submitted my biometrics and got my approval letter within 2 hours.

As I had no interaction with the Caseworker, I guessed my documentation was straight forward.

Thank you all.
