Unpaid Leave Doc Evidences

[pegakrishna]

Hi All,

Last year, I took 13 days unpaid leave for my marriage purpose and I got the employer letter to confirm unpaid leaves.

Is employer letter is suffice? Please confirm

1. Do I need to provide any additional doc evidences to cover unpaid leaves for my ILR application?

Pls advise. I'm due to apply ILR soon

I plan on applying for ILR in July, and have been reading about all this unpaid/days of absence drama. In on Tier 1 General.

The company I worked for in 2008 went into administration/got bought by another company and I took voluntary redundancy and had 3 months of salary in lieu of notice. I took two weeks off before starting my new job.

I literally started my new job right away, and had the two week break in between.

Do I actually need to document this? Will this be a problem?

Is the UKBA saying we are not allowed a normal lifestyle with holidays that we can afford and are supported by our earnings?

I know there are other forums on this subject but finding it all overwhelming and can't actually believe that normal short holidays throughout your life need to be documented.

Sorry for the rant but any feedback is helpful.

I'll be getting a lawyer to handle my case I guess but really thought it would be straightforward!!!

Can't agree with you more on the rights to take holidays. If they reject a case purely baseing on a few unpaid holidays, and your overall absenct still below the permitted days, I am sure you can appeal and argue the case!
