Extension documents with Tier 1 (G ) ILR application

Hi John ,
My apologies , not reading the Announcement related to newbies, before sending a PM.

I am a Tier 1 (G) immigrant , got my extension from HSMP in Aug 2009. In which my previous earnings were a combination of employment and self employment.
I am gonna apply for my ILR next month by post.
According to section 11L of form SET(O) , it asks to submit the documents showing that I met the requirements for my extension at that time.
My problem is that I do have evidence of employment , but I don't have the evidence for self employment as these were submitted with the application of my extension. I have lost the copies and I am not in touch with the accountant.
Do I still have to provide ALL those documents with my ILR , which were provided for extension ?
And I am no more self employed from last two three years.

Can anyone please advise , coz I have checked the forum but couldn't find answer regarding this particular issue.

Many thanks.

If you are referring to the following requirement under 11L, then supplying your approval letter for that visa extension should cover it. Or is it some other requirement in the form that you are referring to here?

For the period before you were granted leave as a Tier 1 (General) migrant, documents showing that you met the relevant requirements of the immigration rules.

Hi cs95tdg

Thanks for your reply.

Yes this is the requirement i was refering to , 11L form SET(O).
Well , my extension case from HSMP to Tier 1 (G) was done at PEO , and solicitor didnt gave me the approval letter just the stamped passport.

It seems confusing why they are asking the documents they already have, and they gave me extension based on those documents , after verifying them.

In the end right now i dont have these documents about my self employment (showed in extension) , i ll just send my P60,s and wait for them to come back to me.

Fingers crossed.

Any other observations , comments guys....!
