ILR Success at Glasgow Aug 2010 - No P60's, No Payslips
Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 11:47 am
I just wanted to post this in case anyone was going through as much stress as I was about not having their P60's or even payslips. I was on a work permit visa for 5 years. Form SET(O)
I got there a little early, waited about 30 minutes and then was called to the desk to do the preliminary check. She just said, "Can I see your documents?" I gave her:
*3 months bank statements
*Letter from employer stating I had worked there continuously for five years and that I am still needed.
*5 years of work contracts showing I had worked there and that I was still contracted to work after I get my ILR
*Passport with new photos
*Life in UK pass notification
She said it was ok. We talked for a little bit and joked around, she was really friendly. Then she told me to go to the payment desk and they would process the documents.
Waited a while, probably around 2 hours and they had my passport with the new visa on it. Didn't have any type of interview process at all! Walked outta there and straight to the pub for a victory pint!
The cool thing was, they didn't ask me for specific documents, just asked for what I had. I was confident, and everything added up...I had worked at the same place for the full 5 years and all the letters were on the same letterhead, so I suppose you don't NEED P60's or payslips if you can make a strong case without them, at least in my case.
Best of luck
