H all,

as per new AN form for citizenship (UK) Home office either focusing on 5 years or 10 year employ history, does anyone have some authentic information from their surrounding? i mean if their friends or etc was working extra hours while was student and got successful in their application after new form?

One more point, as 5-6 years ago student was allowed to work, and full time during their vacations from college/university.... if student worked full time maximum possible ( lets say 72 or plus hours per week) during that vacations which was almost 3-4 months in the year (July-Sep, then 02 week Easter and 02 weeks Christmas), then they could earn in vacation period £9000-10000 and in rest of the year if only part time so in total £15000-16000 could be earn....... So how home office going to recognized that how many hours during student life someone had been working and whether was during class or vacation period?


If someone have any genuine knowledge then please share, it would highly appreciated.

thanks

Whichever 5 or 10 yr depending on previous applications. If on student visa you were allowed x hours .

So tax records hmrc, paye and nic and eco records will be verified

Employment history is requested for 10 years.
Good character is assessed over 10 years.

Members do post refusals due to their failings in these areas.

thanks for your kind information... what is eco record argus 7?

Neojthan can please share a link where members are sharing refusal about character over 10 years?


My question is still there if someone had worked full time during vacations which he/she was allowed while student and rest of the year only part time, then how Home office would know that someone breach their immigration condition of that time, as HMRC and SARS etc only provide what someone has earned during the entire particular years not what someone earn per month ( i dont think so) bcz when you order your employment history they send you per year wise not per month wise over the 10 years......
so how Home would for sure know that someone exceed the hours? bcz if they simply divide the total earning by average per hr rate then it might gonna show someone exceeded permitted hr's but if they take into account the vacation work that was full time allowed then rest of the money could be earn under 20 hrs...so any idea how they are calculating this?


Please respond if you can.

Thanks

Just use the Board 'advanced search'.

Almost 10 years ago employers used to send employees tax on yearly basis but now
they are bound to send your tax on monthly basis to HMRC as per PAYE system, so it can be checked by viewing the statement how much tax you have paid in which month. Now they have even introduced "Real time" tax system which gives them more accurate figures.
If it is within 5 years then HO can verify from HMRC very easily that how much work you did in which month.

The key point also is if you or the applicant being on student visas if found that working more than his allowed working hours is considered breach of immigration laws, and will be a refusal and potential ban for 10 years.

I think it's high time people on ILR stopped this project fear campaign. Since the employment history was introduced last year I am yet to see anybody that was refused based on working over 20hrs, it's also really difficult for home office to clarify the number of hours worked based on taxes and ni paid. I guess the rule is more geared towards categories of people that got ILR through other means not for people via tier 1 general
