There is nothing special about my accountant and business solicitor. They also had no information/experience regarding the tier 1 rules at all. I read the rules carefully and asked them to prepare my documents to those specifications required by the rules. Any qualified accountant or solicitor must be able to do that for you.
It is entirely your responsibility to make sure that you follow the rules as closely as you can and have all the required documents, that is why I personally researched and followed all Tier 1 rules since I switched to this Tier.

Finally a share capital investor!

Would you be so kind to answer the following questions?

You said share certificates, How many certificates did you send? If more then one how were they dated?

Since you sent 3 years unaudited accounts, how old is the last account? You posted the application on 25/02 when was you year end? There will be three months gap between my last account date and possible application date hence I asked my accountant to prepare a 3 months management accounts is that required?

Thanks.

I submitted two share certificates. My 50K investment was done during year 2014-2015. So one certificate had an issue date of jan 2014 and other one May 2015.
I sent two years unaudited accounts and last years Managment accounts. My year end accounts date is in April but my management accounts were prepared until Jan as I submitted my application in feb.

Hope that's clear.
