Hi everyone,

I recently became eligible to apply for ILR. As part of the process, I’m requesting a letter from my company, but I have a question about my absences from the UK.

Each year, my “days outside the UK” come to around 30–40 days because my company offers one month of work-from-home per year. I usually spend about three weeks of that working remotely from India.

However, my company-approved annual leave is only 25 days. This means my records show more days abroad than my official leave days.

How should I explain this in my application?
• Should I ask my employer to mention in their letter that I was allowed to work remotely from abroad and took advantage of this?
• Or is it fine to just list these as annual leave?
• Do I need to provide any specific proof for the remote working period?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

The immigration rules do not care about any of these.

Thanks a lot for the quick help @zimba.

I have a follow up question on this, Do we need a statement like below in the employement letter

"It is expected that xxxx will continue their employment with the company for the foreseeable future if granted Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK"

My employer's letter currently contains

Start Date:
● Contract Type:
● Working hours:
● Job Title:
● Current Salary:
● All leaves of absence have been authorised by company

Do we need anything additional in the letter.

Thank You,
Jish
