ILR - Tier 1 Success at Solihull - 4/Oct

[kakamanna]

Hi,

I'll skip the usual procedural details as they have been mentioned here, on this forum, more than once. Here is what I submitted:

Route: Tier 1 General - All the way
Applicants : Main + 1 Dep
1. SET (O) form - including one dependent + Passports + BRPs
2. 2x LIUK
3. 12x Months Bank Statements
3. 12x Payslips - printed on a plain paper signed & stamped by HR
4. Employer reference letter
5. P60s for 2013 & 2012
6. HMRC Employment History Letter - Covering 5 Years
7. Absence sheet
8. Lots of Cohabs


I had absence letters but didn't submit. Instead, I just mentioned in my cover letter that they are available today. I was not asked for them.

Overall experience was very pleasant. Solihull has very friendly and cooperative staff.

My suggestion: Just submit absolute minimum documents. Avoid submitting unnecessary documents.

[Hi kaka
Congratulations for your ILR. I am aaplying for ILR next month. I want to know what list of absenses sheet needs to be submitted? I am getting confused as i have taken total personal annual leave of 120 days in last 5 years and in any given year not more than 40 days. Do I need to get letters for absense from all the employers I have worked for in last 5 years? if not what do I need to submit? Would appreciate your help
Many thanks ]

It's a standard absence sheet available here on this form. It just highlights the passport page numbers for entry/exit stamps. This make case worker life easy.

With regards to letters, if your total leave is within 180 days, then you should be fine. Get employer letters as a backup if you can.
