Employer letter query

Post by Barry465 » Wed Jul 29, 2020 3:26 pm

During the start of lockdown, our company put in company wide salary drop of 10% for everyone. This impacted me as well, so when I submitted my application it reflected the new salary. I am just wondering, as I already have my employer letter, is it actually worth mentioning they put a company wide salary drop in of 10%. Or should I just leave as is, considering I am still above threshold?

Ideally the employer letter must delineate the most recent state of employment.

So that's a yes - the letter should ideally state this?

Lost BRP Query

Post by Barry465 » Wed Jul 29, 2020 5:32 pm

I have applied for my ILR and have a current valid BRP card. However, this was a replacement card that I got last year - due to a lost BRP card.

Just wanted to know if it's worth mentioning to the application team that this was a replacement card, or if this is a non issue?

No need unless pacifically be asked about it as they can see it in their record

Document Upload on UKVCAS 'Education'

Post by Barry465 » Fri Aug 07, 2020 9:07 am

Have a query around uploading of documents on UKVCAS, what needs to go under 'education'. I've passed the Life in the UK test, but don't believe I ever got a certificate (I sat it a month ago), I've just got a code and account which obviously says 'passed' - which I input on my application.

Should I leave this area blank?

The categories are generic. If you don't have a pass letter, there is nothing to upload!

Query on 'Employer Letter'

Post by Barry465 » Thu Aug 13, 2020 5:00 pm

Can the letter from the employer contain both your employment status (salary, length of service etc) and the absences? I've seen a few people put them together as separate letters, but wanted to know if a combined letter was fine?

DO NOT start a new post and stick to your own post here :!:
There is no need for two letters
