Re: Payslip and bank statements query
I don't know the law on this - christmasoompa is suggesting it's illegal to be paid before the date on your payslip?
But in my experience this is very common - so I am surprised to hear it is illegal - I know of at least 4+ companies who pay before the date of the payslip date all the time!

Re: Payslip and bank statements query
This is all getting a bit off topic though, I was just trying to point out to the OP that if he needs payslips with corresponding dates to his payday, then he has a legal right to that, and that may be grounds for the company to reissue them with a matching date if it helps his application.

Not sure any company could have an excuse tbh, it's easy enough to produce a payslip the same day the calculations are done for the BACS run etc. If somebody has bills to pay then they need to know advance of their payday how much they'll be getting. That's the reason employees can take their employer to a tribunal over something as simple as payslip dates.

2 out the 6 payslips are paid on a Friday because its the weekend, I didn't explain this because UKVI should no its very common. honestly I wouldn't worry too much, also I am sure they will email if they need an explanation.

So in this situation, the employers aren't breaking the law by providing a payslip with an incorrect pay date.
