ILR

Post by okoko2016 » Mon Apr 11, 2016 10:27 am

Hi Friends,
I applied for Tier general in 2011 with some earnings in the Uk and abroad. My question is do I have to pay tax for the foreign earnings as that was my first application?

I applied for the second one in 2013 with self employment and permanent employment salary but the two years after that which was 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 I made loss and as a result I got some credit from HMRC. My question is will the loss following the application affect my ILR? Note in 2012/2013 which was the year I used for my tier 1 application it was the same figure I submitted to Home office that I returned for my Personal tax.

Thanks

So did you switch in-country to Tier 1 General and used income from both within UK and abroad to qualify ? I think you should be OK as long as tax was paid in the foreign country for income generated there.

When you said you made some loss, do you mean from your self-employment and as a result you got some tax exemption ? Does that translate to you made some earnings from self-employment but did not pay any tax on it due to losses incurred ?

Do you have sufficient earnings to qualify for your ILR in spite of incurring loss ?
Cheers,

thanks O-Relly

I made loss in 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 (note the loss was from self employment) as a result i got credit into my HMRC account. for 2015/2016 (which i would use for my ILR) i got enough through LTD company which i am a director.

Many thanks

Not entirely sure, but it appears, you should be OK as long as the earnings for the year with which you are going to qualify is all tax paid and authentic.

Given the current climate for Tier 1 General (Self Employed) applicants in general be prepared to answer questions for the earlier 2 years when you incurred losses. But as long as losses were genuine and all paper work with HMRC is in order, I would think there is no need to worry.
