Hi wiplr,
I agree with other respondees, I applied for ILR from WP last week and they asked me for 3 months payslips, 3 months bank statements, LIUK pass certificate, letter from Employer stating start date, salary, SOC code, that I was paid above market rates and that I was required for continuous employment indefinately.
Caseworker also asked for my work permit and extension work permit documents as well but not sure why as he already dictated back to me what was on their screen exactly what was in these documents.
Major thing my application is currently stumbling over is that my company was acquired by another company and whilst I've not changed jobs/responsibilities/job grade or location, my sponsor company is under another umbrella so have submitted additional doc's outlining this change. My company sought legal advice twice and contacted UKBA, I've also sought personal legal advice and told on all 3 occassions it wouldn't be a problem but it still seems that this needs very careful and detailed consideration!
So make sure if you have changed jobs you have alot of documentation and any relevant "Technical change of employment" evidence from your employer notifying UKBA/ WP's throughout the 5 years where your job has changed. Same company, same job through full 5 years? You are laughing I think.
