hello peeps,
Going for ILR application tomorrow. hsmp visa stamped in may2006 but had got approval in feb2006. So covered under JR, was eligible to apply since may 2010 but due to loosing job I didnt. Now finally back on the right job. Have got 3 payslips, 3 months bank statements. Hope they would give me backdated letter.

I have total of 140 days absence from uk, the longest being 83 days(just saved going above 90!! as i didnt knew about it) . But i had been away for 15 days before 6 months of that absence. some experts might be able answer on that. 2008 was a crap year year, had been travelling and living on my savings...so hope that does not create issues..

will update you guys of outcome

All the Best and keep us posted

Reached 30 min before. went through the security check, called in 5 minutes...case worker asked for application form & passport. did some checks, on phone and then went inside for 1-2 minute. Came back asked me what work i did and employer letter. Asked for p60- I said have lost it'(actually i havent got any from last years). But I offered him whether he wanted to have a look at my few payslips I had. He said no, and has got all my details! Didnt look at the bank statements or approval letter at all.

All in all 10 minutes and then collected in 2 hours!!! All the best to rest of you who are about to apply.

did they backdate ILR?

yes...

Hello people,
I am applying for ILR on 10 Dec. I am supplying my current employment contract as evidence that I am employed with them. I joined this company last week(30/Nov/10) and do not have a payslip yet as I will be paid on 23/Dec/10. Do I necessarily need a letter from employer stating that I work for them. Will my contract and joining letter be enough to prove that I am employed or should I get a letter stating that I am employed as well.
Thanks
Sid
