One of them had 2 employees for 1 year but they have done 3095 hours not 3120 hours. That guy got refusal as well. He is now on article 8 (human right).
If I am not wrong total hours for two employees should be 2880 not 3120. ( (30 hours x 4) * 12 * 2)

Nope. It should be 52 weeks x 30 hours min X 2 employees = min 3120 hours

When you work for your company as a director, you legally are considered an employee of that company but you do not need to register anything. However If you pay yourself any salary, you need to put yourself on PAYE payroll.

I still do not get what you mean by register ??? You only need to put yourself on payroll if you want to receive any salary, if you do not want then you are not required to be on payroll. Immigration rules require you to be the Director of the company but not to be on payroll necessarily !!

Hi Napoleon77

It is a big list of documents. However I will try to cover all.

1 - Application Forms
2 - Passports
3 - Previous BRP
4 - Funds Maintenance Bank Statement
5 - Companies House Certificate
6 - VAT registration certificate
7 - EL/PL/PL Insurance certificate
8 - Payslips of all the employees
9 - FPS for each submission (Signed by myself)
10 - Business Bank Account statements (I invested 50K in 12 instalments with various different amounts, therefore only statements attached where it shows Investment amounts)
11 - Personal Bank Account statements which shows investment transferred to Business Account
12 - Director's Loan Agreement
13 - CA cover letter
14 - CA letter which confirms each and every employee number of hours, hourly rate etc
15 - Business visiting cards, Letter heads and little more stationaries.
16 - Three years Annual Accounts (Make sure to sign these annual returns)
17 - Self assessments reports

I personally made sets of all the employees individually with a cover letter for each of them explaining the number of hours each month they worked, hourly rate paid, their start date or leaving date FPS copies in their particular sets.

I hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for the wishes.

I sent P46 / P45 / P46 where and what required for individual employee requirement along with FPS (Making sure that for each employee, Start date, and if the employee ended in your company during the course then End Date on FPS should be clearly reflected.)

No I have not sent P35's.

I would recommend to look for the templates online. I am sure you will find good template online. Just go through one of them and see if you are happy with the agreement template.

Thanks

Hello

Congrats

Please could tell us more about your director loan as you made 12 transactions from personal to business account, where in annual account it was shown?

Did you create director loan before making any transfers?

Who witnessed your director loan?

What you suggest to do if you have been transferring money from personal to business account, but it is not shown in annual accounts?

Hi KKL147

16 - Three years Annual Accounts (Make sure to sign these annual returns) (from your list of docs).

can you please confirm if it is a requirement to submit 3 years accounts to HO?

in my case (visa dates: March 2013 - March 2016), I transferred 50K into my business account in fiscal year 2014 - 2015 which has now been spent in full by the company. In my opinion, we only have to submit the accounts including the time when investment was made and also when it was spent by the company.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks

Your accounts just need to show you invested the money. If previous ones do not show this, there is no point to send extra documents.

Well Zimba88

I did sent two years annual returns, and because my last year was not completed, I sent interim accounts / management accounts. However this is what I followed and sent along with my application. I do not see any harm in sending three years accounts along. I do understand that it is of no use of sending irrelevant documents but I do not think 3 years accounts are irrelevant.

I am here only to help guys and let them know what I did. Obviously they have their own opinions and mindset to follow with their own application. Good luck.. :) :)

Thanks
