On workpermit for 5 years now and need help on ILR

Post by moganlal » Mon Dec 07, 2009 5:08 pm

Hi All,
I have been on workpermit for last 5 years and was out of UK for 208 days in 2007 as my employer had sent me back to India(my base location) to work on the same project. Employer would be giving me the letter substantiating this, what else would I need please? If someone has the letter format used successively that will help me greatly in getting this from employer. Also could you please guide me with what forms and what all should I provide please.
many thanks,
Dhananjaya

You are only required to be paid in UK. Council tax etc are not require. Clearly you won't pay council tax if you are out of the country.

I am aware of similar case when employer sent resource back to India to work on the same project with offshore team. He got letter from employer stating the same and now got PR from Croydon Office. Him along with many other people in the same company has got it too. All of them had more or less similar situation. He went through solicitor though.
