Advice needed

I've been employed remotely for a US company for the last three years. I have my employment contract, money in the bank, a letter from my employer stating remote work is acceptable and tax returns for the last two years showing income from remote work. However, I've been taking an extended holiday for the last 6 months so I don't have proof of income during that time. I've started working again but won't be paid for a month or so.

Anyone know if this is likely to be an issue? Thanks in advance.

Answer summary

The general consensus from community comments is that the lack of income proof during the six-month holiday should not be an issue for your visa application. As long as you have documentation showing your employment status, including a confirmed contract, a letter from your employer, and sufficient funds in your bank account, you are likely to meet the requirements. It is noted that proof of active employment and financial stability is often more critical than continuous proof of income.

Proof of income is not usually requested, just proof of money in your account.

No, it should not be. You are employed remotely and have income plus 500k
