Settlement Application - Tier 2 General
Posted: Fri Feb 23, 2018 11:26 am
Hello Members,
I am in the process of preparing for ILR SET(O) Tier 2 Gen 5 Years and have the following queries.
1. Do I need 1 recent payslip and 1-month bank statement or 3 payslips and 3 months bank statement?
The immigration rules clearly state that there is 1 payslip required along with a bank statement that reflects the pay deposit from the current employer. And if the applicant is being supported by someone for ILR then 3 months are needed. But there have been mixed information on this site from other post, So I am requesting to have this clarified from someone who have recently gone in for a Tier 2 ILR and have been given an expert legal advice.
2. The application asks about the total time spent in the UK, I came to UK in 2012 Jan on Tier 4 and left in December but came back to the UK again on May 10 2013 on Tier 2 , So do I have to mention the total time of 5 years 6 months OR just 5 years on Tier 2.
3. Under absence sections I had visited Ireland(Republic) for two weeks. I was given the entry on the port for the same period with a stamp on my passport but didn't get any entry stamp in the UK due to the local port in Luton. How else shall I prove it that I did not spent more than 180 days outside of the UK?
Thank you in advance for your help
