Hi All,

Just making sure I’ve got all my documents prepared well in advance. My work contract for my work-cation application states that it ends 31st of May 2027. This is because we have an annual review before they renew my contract each year. Will this be a problem as my employment is not labelled as rolling?

Any advice would be much appreciated 🫶

Answer summary

Commenters provide reassurance, suggesting that as long as the user can explain potential contract renewal, similar experiences have been successful with fixed-term contracts.

I work as a freelance online tutor and I was accepted with just letters from my students saying they learn with me. I think aslong as you explain it will likely get renewed you’ll be fine.
