Letter of employment template

[Slip]

Looks like I will be asking my employer to write me a letter soon to submit with Harlene's spouse visa application. Can somebody point me in the way of a template letter so I have a sample to hand him to put on headed notepaper. I want to make it easy for him and not have him refuse or put it to the back of his to do list as he is a busy man!

Thanks

I never got a letter from my employer. All I did was send them a copy of my work contract and 6 months' pay slips.

You will give the details of your employer when you fill in the visa application form.

It would still be a good idea to get a letter from your employer though.

I wrote a covering letter myself and my wife added one.

The more information the better.

Make no mistake Slip.....you MUST include a letter/statement from your employer.
It's considered a mandatory requirement under the Financial Requirement 5.6.1


(b) A letter from the employer(s) who issued the payslips at paragraph 2(a) confirming:
(i) the person's employment and gross annual salary;
(ii) the length of their employment;
(iii) the period over which they have been or were paid the level of salary relied upon in the application; and
(iv) the type of employment (permanent, fixed-term contract or agency).


It should be on headed notepaper and can be simply a series of statements covering the above requirements.

Forgot about this...

Spoke to one of my bosses today who said if I drew up a letter and gave it to him, he would fill in the blanks and put it on company headed paper.

I know you put what I should include Terpe, but I was hoping someone could point me in the way of a sample letter on the internet so I can copy it, I am not very good at letters and it will not make sense!

Doesn't need to be 'wordy' letter. It can just be formal confirmation statements.

"This letter confirms that ******
- is currently employed by us at an annual gross salary of £
- has been in our employment for x years
......."
Etc.

:iagree: with Michael. Written communication's my strong point ... so I'd say, :yeahthat: will be more than adequate for the purpose.

Just ensure (though your boss - and his secretary - should know this already!) its layout is:-


TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Dear Sir(s)

(Employee's) Name:

[Body of letter as worded by you]

Yours faithfully,

Name of Signatory
Signatory's Designation

That's fine Slip.
But just be sure you cover all the requirements:-
