Hi everyone,
Next month, I am going to apply for ILR via the 5 year Tier 1 (G) route. I lost my job in Jan 2013, but immediately I registered a limited company to try and see work as a self-employed person. Between Jan and June 2013 I worked as a contractor for a UK based business. For the rest of the 5 year qualifying period including the past 15 months, I was in continuous permanent employment. The total number of days I was absent from the UK during the 5 year qualifying period is 164. I have 2 questions;
1, During the 6 months when I was self-employed/contracting in 2013 (under my limited company), I was absent from the UK for 55 days, 3 weeks of which was for business. Please can you advise what evidence should I provide for this period of absence? Do I need to provide any evidence of income for this period? e.g. tax documents?
2, In 11L section of the SET (O) form, it mentions that 'For the period before you were granted leave as a Tier 1 (General) migrant, documents showing that you met the relevant requirements of the immigration rules.' What exactly are the documents required for this? Can I provide previous home office correspondence confirming that I was granted Post Study Work leave before my Tier 1? Or anything else? I have no clue...
Many thanks for your advice!!
