Thank you both for replying.

As advised, I'll now include payslips, payslip authenticity letters and bank statements to cover last three months.

A letter is needed to certify payslip as authentic if it is not printed on company branded paper. My employer uses a generic payslip format.

I would appreciate some advice.

My employer was not happy to put "foreseeable future" in my letter but instead, put 2021 as my current contract end date. So you think this would be ok?

My current Tier 2 visa expires in 2019

There is no exact definition for forseeable future but 2021 is in 3 years time and I believe that is more than enough for a forseeable future scenario.

Hello Everyone,

I’m applying for ILR on the 29th of March using same day service. I’m taking a minimalist approach to keep the application as simple as possible. Could someone be kind enough to have a quick look and advise if the documents I’m including are sufficient.

I’m not including dependents in my application as they do not satisfy the residence requirement for another few months.

My initial Tier 2 General entry clearance was issued on 24/04/2013.

I’ve included the following in my file:

1. Application Form - SET (O)
2. Appointment Booking Checklist
3. Passports x2
4. Photos x2
5. Employer’s letter. Says that I’ll be employed for the foreseeable future, includes SOC code and salary details as well as a one liner confirming my only absence from the UK during five years.
6. Latest Payslip
7. Letter confirming the payslip is authentic.
8. Latest Bank Statement - 1 month
9. BRP
10. LIUK Pass Certificate
11. Trinity College B1 Certificate
12. Photocopies of all documents except the form and checklist.

My only concern is the £6K raise I received a year ago, bumping my salary from £32K to £38K. The increment itself was justifiable though and was timely reported via SMS system.

Ideas/advice much appreciated.

Thank you.

I supplied documents listed in my original post. Just increased to quantity of payslips and bank statements to 3 each.

I went to Solihull PSC. My application was processed in less than 3 hours in total. No questions asked and no additional documents requested.

The wording of the note was:

We have increased <Name Here> salary from £32000 to £38000. His new salary will be effective from <Date Here>

No other details or justification provided.

It was the only increment since my extension that I accepted. I was offered another increment at the start of this year but I asked my employer to withhold it until I'm done with my ILR application. I was concerned that two increments in a single tax year may raise a red flag.
