Dear Friends,

I am due for ILR in 3 months time and wanted to get one query answered by you all experienced folks.

My employer provides PDF (electronic) copy of P-60 issued by HMRC.

My question is: Is this PDF version of P-60 acceptable for ILR application?

Thanks for your responses in advance!!

That cannot be a problem. After all the HMRC's own PAYE software produces a PDF file for the P60, and who are UKBA to object to that practice?

Thanks John! It makes absolute logical sense for UKBA to accept PDF, but there are discrepancies on their part when it comes to practice.

One of my friend who applied for ILR at Croydon PEO; he had PDF pf P-60 which the officer didn't accept. Luckily he had original P-45 that his employer gave when he parted from company and joined another one.

That's the reason I am concerned about PDF versions of P-60.

Friends, please share your experience if you have applied with PDF of P-60.

Thanks!
