Hi fishes. Need some advice. I told my manager that I will be resigning soon so that they can find a replacement. I am awaiting the offer letter right now. They have asked me to start the resignation process anyways but I am worried that If I don't get the offer letter then I might be out of a job. Also I want to wait to get appraisal letter before resigning so that I can negotiate a higher base with other companies. What should I do?

Sorry to kill your hopes but you are already trapped now so forget the appraisal, never ever say about resignation to your manager before you are having any offer in hand

See, even if you verbally mention it that you will be resigning, it is taken as an assurance of resignation by the management. For them it is considered as breach of trust , so they will treat you the same as an employee in NP , no hikes, no appraisals, and your intention are recorded formally in your progress, you will not get anything except for further discussions on counter offers for getting retained.

Why disclose that you are resigning without an offer letter?

like

Just check with the HR of the new company by when you will be receiving the offer letter and inform them that you will be resigning basis their confirmation. If you are confident that you will be receiving the offer letter soon, then go ahead and resign. However please make sure that you have an option to take back the resignation. If the option to take back the resignation is available and you are expecting the offer letter in few weeks, then I think you can tender your resignation. In worst case if you don’t receive the offer letter in the expected time, you can withdraw your resignation.

If I resign today will I still get the appraisal mail or should I wait?

Not sure why you did like this. We must never disclose anything to manager or mates in office that we are about to get the offer. Until and unless you dont have offer dont reveal anything.

What can I do now? If I deny resigning till 1 week?
