Employer checking

Hi All,

I have following doubt, would someone assist me or please share your experience, if you have came across similar situation...

I have submitted the PR application today using the same day service....unfortunately they was not able to make a decision in my case and told further checking is required...so decision delayed

(In my application, I have long absence(155 days) to India for employment purpose and during that time I have switched employment, due which I have overlap of workpermit. I have got a letter from employer, for the long absence)

PEO Croydon has accepted my case, but they want to check whether I have resigned in UK and went back to India to find new job....if that be the case, they think I have broken the continuous period of stay in UK.

In general, I want to know what sort of checking does Home Office do on the PR application?

Do they check employer(past/present) to confirm their employment details?


Thanks,

Yes, if they doubt your claims regarding your employment and / or absences from UK due to work related assignments or paid / annual leave(s).

One of my previous company is closed due to financial loss...I really dont how they would be able to check my employment for that concern and I dont know Home Office would handle that..... Does anybody come across similar suitation, if so how Home Office treated your case? Please share..

Do they turn down my application in that case, as they were not able to check and confirm my employment???

yes unfortunately it can go either way if they are unable to confirm your employment. do you have a copy of your resignation letter / payslips and P45, in case it goes to any appeal.

In-person application is not necessarily a guarantee of "same day service", though it is perceived so by many.

If a decision has been deferred, your application is as good as a postal one and may follow the same timelines as a postal application.

No one, other than the caseworker, can tell you when the verfication(s) relating to your application will be completed.
