Annual Leave to be mentioned for ILR...?

[kUMARI16]

Hi Experts,

I am preparing to apply for ILR on 5 year Tier 2 General route next month where I have a question regarding absences. Below is what I understood from Tier 2 guidance,
"Applicants applying under Tier 2 must provide evidence of all work-related absences. If the absence is work-related then the type of evidence required is a letter from the current or previous employer which gives the reason for absence and periods of paid annual leave"

So here my question is, I took annual leave and outside of UK on the below dates which are not work-related, so could some one suggest me whether I need to submit the absence letter to Home Office or not? If I need to submit in which format do I need to submit the letter from my current and previous employers.
Any letter template could you share if at all possible.

Year 2014:

OCT - 3 DAYS
DEC - 10 DAYS

Year 2015:

June - 15 days
Sept - 10 days

Year 2016:

Mar - 10 days
May - 10 days
July - 5 days

Many Thanks for your help in advance.

If not work related so were those part of your annual holidays and paid ?

Firstly, thank you for responding. Yes, they were paid holidays and I got paid for those holidays. So do I need to submit the absence letter from employers..? Please suggest.

Hi CR001,

Thank you for confirming. I saw the letter from the link and one more question, do I need to mention all the dates and years in the letter as per my passport stampings? If I submit a letter from each employer detailing about the absences with date and year. Is that sufficient...?

Please suggest and many thanks for your help.

As a Tier 2 visa holder, you need a letter from each employer/sponsor you have had detailing the dates.
