Tier 1 entrepreneur ILR application query (Urgent)

Hello everyone,
I have submitted my online application for tier
1 entrepreneur ILR yesterday. I have appointment for biometrics and docs check on Monday. After submitting the application I have realised that i have done some mistakes in application form.
Is there any chance I can amend the application?
I know I can still upload the docs but there is no option to do any changes in application form. I'm so worried.
I forget to mention one travel history in 2012 to Pakistan. Although it doesn't come in last 5 years but I believe I should have mentioned that in application form.?
Secondly, I didn't mention points on my driving licence which I received in Feb 2016, which is more than 3 years old now.
Thirdly, regarding job creation, one job was created in January 2016 and 1 employee worked for 5 months at that time and replaced by other employee and job position still exists, I provided all information in my extention application but I didn't mention in this application about that employee as I'm not claiming points for that employee,but I'm not sure if I should have mentioned that too.
Finally, in application there was question " Are you sole trader or director of your company?
I said No. It's limited company and I'm one of the directors. I'm confused about my NO answer.
Any one please help me about my questions. I'm much tensed and have biometrics on Monday and thinking if I can do anything before Monday.
I shall be very thankful!

Print out the relevant pages of the form. Correct it manually. Upload it along with a cover letter explaining with all other docs BEFORE the appointment. You will be okay.

Relax! Can’t make changes to the application itself but you can upload a cover letter pertaining to the mistakes..

I forget to mention one travel history in 2012 to Pakistan. Although it doesn't come in last 5 years but I believe I should have mentioned that in application form.?

No. Only absences during tier1 required. Don’t confuse CW with unnecessary info.

Secondly, I didn't mention points on my driving licence which I received in Feb 2016, which is more than 3 years old now.

No impact on ILR. Not required. I think only criminal convictions are required. It’s been more than 2 years anyways.

Thirdly, regarding job creation, one job was created in January 2016 and 1 employee worked for 5 months at that time and replaced by other employee and job position still exists, I provided all information in my extention application but I didn't mention in this application about that employee as I'm not claiming points for that employee,but I'm not sure if I should have mentioned that too.

Job creation after extension is assessed only.
As long as current job provided 12 months of payslips after ext, you should be ok.

Finally, in application there was question " Are you sole trader or director of your company?
I said No. It's limited company and I'm one of the directors. I'm confused about my NO answer.

Lol. Should have been a yes but ur CAR would take care of that. I’m not familiar with online questions. But answering yes would probably have opened more questions pertaining to a company director.
I’m not sure so Tier11417 can answer this better.
Or you can run a dummy application and see for yourself what happens after you say yes.. does it open up different set of questions.

Any one please help me about my questions. I'm much tensed and have biometrics on Monday and thinking if I can do anything before Monday.
I shall be very thankful!

Don’t be tense. You haven’t messed up. As long as you provide required evidences, you can’t be refused..

If I recall correct, the question is something like “are you the sole director or..” so if you are the only director on your company... your answer should have been “yes”.

Are you sure I had to mention only last 5 years travel history?
Secondly, regarding question
At any time you ever had any of the following.
A penalty for a driving offence, for example, disqualification for speeding or no motor insurance.
I had driving points due to no insurance but never been disqualified or never taken to court.
Are you still sure I don't need to mention about driving points?
Although I didn't mention in my extention application.
waiting for valuable inputs. many thanks again

The ILR application is based on the 5 years you’ve lived on this visa.. hence only those absences count..
You can mention the driving points and the fact that you said no to the director question in a cover letter or as tier11417 advised above.
My point is it’s not a big deal that you didn’t in the submitted application so don’t lose sleep over it. Just state the truth now.
Search the ILR forum for ur driving points issue, you’ll find solace.

what is the exact question abt sole trader n director.
Sole trader is an actual name.
That doesn’t mean sole director.
You are a director and the answer ought to have been yes regardless whether there are two directors.
Again silly mistake. Just state you didn’t understand the question and answered no but you are a director.
It won’t affect the ILR decision.

This is the exact question: “Are you the sole partner or director in your business”

Thank you very much brother. I clearly understand now. I didn't mention about penalty points in extention application and my application was successful. I believe I would be fine now as well.

Hello everyone,
I have applied for tier 1 entrepreneur ILR 50k on 16th May.
While checking right to work today it says " there is no limit on how long you can work and stay in the UK ".
Does it mean my ILR is approved?
Just to let you know I haven't received any approval letter or anything yet.
Thank you in advance. This forum is very helpful.
