Thanks marcnath.

As genuine entrepreneur test still part of ILR application. My question is what documents do we need to satisfy the case worker about genuineness. No documents are required however if the CW feels HO can demand later on

Can someone please help me where in the guidelines, it says that we don't need to send business accounts, business bank statement and director loan agreement again after 5 years for ILR. Refer to Table F Tier 1 guidance. No investment documents needed and DL and accounts fall under that which is already satisfied at extension stage. Note Business bank statement or bank letter is mandatory

Can someone share Any successful applicant documents list. Marcnaths sample application is pinned at top of Tier 1 forum or many members have shared their own lists in their own threads

Thanks
Thanks tier11417.

Just below that table F is this statement.

"If you are applying for settlement you will need to provide all the necessary documentation to
evidence you have met the requirements of the table above. In all cases you should supply the
required evidence of investment and job creation set out in the Extension Application section above."

What is this for?

Thanks

Table F

“You have invested, or caused investment to be made by one or more third parties totalling at least £200,000 (or £50,000 if you were awarded points for £50,000 funding or investment in your last grant of leave) in cash directly into one or more UK businesses.
You do not need to provide evidence of this investment if you were awarded points for this investment in your last successful Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) application”

That seems to be an error in the guidance as you stated above but we definitely need NOT provide investment docs again.

Re: Tier1 50k to ILR online system

Post by xeesee » Fri Feb 01, 2019 10:37 pm

Hello members,

I need help in the following questions:

1- Is it compulsory to attend the service point for biometrics and all other documents or we can still give it in the post office.

2- can we fill and submit online application form and post all documents to UKVI with printouts of online submitted form.

I'm confused as someone told me that we only need to fill online application form and its optional to use service points or post all documents to UKVI as we used to do before this new system.

If its compulsory or optional, can someone please share me the document link from where we can check this.


Thanks

The instructions should be clear once you fill in the online form. It should give you the options.

Thanks marcnth for your reply.

I'm just asking if someone knows, so i have clear idea what I will do after submitting my application. Like if old service is still available then i don't need to scane any documents. I will take the printouts of the application form and post to UKVI with all other documents.

You have to choose the “new service” NOT the existing service in the options which you will get before the payment. Once you choose the new service, pay and submit the application. Then the system will ask you to create an account on sopra website where you will be able to upload your documents before your appointment and also book your appointment for biometric and verification of documents. You will retain your original passport and all documents after the appointment but you must attend an appointment at a UKVCAS centre.

I would advise you to only use the new service now.

Thanks tier11417. You marcnath, zimba, CR001 and other members are doing great job helping others. I really appreciate that. Thanks to all of you.

1-As you saying that system will ask to choose between new system and existing system before payment page it means it's upto the applicant which service he/she want to choose?

2- if i choose existing service and don't choose sopra services will that be an issue? I can understand by choosing sopra services i will retain all my original documents and probably get a decision earlier as compare to the old system.

3- I'm applying ILR as a team and my partner wants to use the existing service (if available) and saying that at the end of online application form the system will give us the address to post all documents.

Please advise.
Thanks

I am curious as to why you want to use existing system ?

There is no requirement for both of you to follow the same process either - one can do existing and the other new.

He is a kind of person who don't want to adapt new technology and trying his best to stick with the old system (if available).

Unfortunately he is my brother in-law as well 😀😀. I need to give some respect to his decision as long as the old system will not harm my application.

If we can use the old method to send documents to UKVI I will apply the same way. But only if it is available and safe.

Thanks.

I cant really comment on the existing service as I myself have not used it nor seen any feedback after November 2018 on it.
However, when you go to the page with shows to choose existing or new service, just read that page what it says. It explains it there.

Thanks tier11417. This is a big help from you. I will try to convince him for a new service which is very unlikely.
But once again thank you so much, you helped me alot as I was upset from last couple of days because of this. I'm following this forum from 3 years and since this new services started I didn't come across any applicant using the existing service. Maybe I will be 1st person.

At least I can trust that my application will not be invalid my using existing service.

Can we get a mandatory documents list by running a dummy application?

What I understand from the existing service is that you apply online and then you will post your documents to the given address. After, you will receive a letter in the post for biometrics in due course and you will go to post office to provide that. This is just my understanding as I do not have an experience of that myself.

The information i got from my partner is that the existing system will generate a biometric letter at the end with barcode on it. We need to give biometrics in a post office with in 15 days of submitting online application and also post all the documents with in those 15 days. I will update all.

Do we need to need to send all Ct600 or only 1?

My 4years CT600 and company accounts are ready and available on companies house website.

5th years accounts are not ready and last date to submit those accounts are end of may 2019.

Do I need to submit last year's accounts before applying for ILR?

Latest CT600 is enough. If I am not wrong for the latest CT600 I think you would have to complete the latest company accounts also(not sure). There is no requirement to send company accounts but I would personally file for my latest company accounts as it will appear on the recent filing history CAR as that has to be sent. I personally would want it to be up to date but someone else can confirm if you really have to file for it or just wait before the deadline.

And if I am not wrong even “latest” CT600 is not a requirement. You possibly can send older also but I personally sent the latest one. Please someone else can confirm this to OP.
