Dear Moderators and all
I have been silent browser of this forum, must say this is an excellent one with great input from moderators while one is preparing for Ilr.My case is as follows:I was granted Hsmp on 15 Feb 2007. Extended it by having Tier1(15 feb 2009).Will apply for Ilr in jan end 2012. There are two issues.I didnt had a job until May end 2007(will this be an hindrance in getting ilr).Thereafter from June 2007 until now have been in continuous employment. Another problem is I have lost the original Hsmp approval letter of 2007, have only the Tier1 approval letter of 2009. Will this be a problem as 10 l section of set o form asks for document showing one has met relevant requirements before issue of current Tier1. Please do kindly help,any help to the above queries is much appreciated. Kind regards,Zeesh

Hi Zeesh,

Good luck with your application and hope you don't mind if I get some advise from you as you are applying before me.

I am planning to apply in April 2012. Also I was bit confused with SET(0) 10L. Thanks for clearing that.

Tier1 criteria requires you to score certain salary points so it doesn't matter if didn't have had a job for past 4 years if you meet the criteria you will get it.

don't know about second question but they should have it in their records plus your passport has a vignette on it which should tell them
