Hello, Sorry for the long post but my situation is very complex. I got the UK Entrepreneur visa in December 2014. I came and set up a clothing shop. In 2017, I opened up a mobile phone shop as well. The extension was due in April 2018, but before that, the Home Office raided my accountant’s office a...

Thank you so much for your help.

Hello, I need some help with the following queries. As i mentioned before, i applied for Tier 1 Entrepreneur Extension in April 2018 and haven't had the decision yet. I had an interview about 2 months ago which went pretty well. I am applying for the ILR now and need to know the following. 1. Can i ...

Thank you Marcnath. I like to ask a couple of more things. 1. I have read the i can apply 28 days before the qualifying period, i got the visa on 09-12-2014 so i can apply by 12-11-2019? And i can use the same employment i used for Visa Extension? 2. I got 3 Penalty points on my driving license and ...

Hello marcnath, Thanks for your reply. I talked to my immigration lawyer today and he said that its not possible if my last visa is Entry Clearance and not leave to remain. He said that if i was in UK before applying and switched to Entrepreneur Visa than i can apply, but as my last grant of visa wa...

Thank you for the help. Really appreciate that

Thanks for the reply. I am just worried because they haven't replied me on my case yet and its been 10 months, 2 employees are still working in the clothing shop, also if they go for an interview, they may question you sent us documents and investment of the clothing shop which is closed and it may ...

Hello, I am in the UK on Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa (£200 k route). I applied for my extension in April 2018 and haven't heard from HO yet. No complex letter or nothing else. In my documents i showed that i have invested in a clothing business and a mobile phone business. I have got 2 shops. The cloth...

By Home Office. They suspected him for dodgy accounting i guess HO does not raid accountants for dodgy accounting if not (suspect) immigration connected. HMRC would do that... You WILL have to disassociate yourself from his suspected practices He was also dealing with immigration I have changed the...

"The accountant is saying that HO got some complaints about him, and HO suspected that he is creating bad quality jobs." sorry don't understand this. Accountants and any other business are allowed to create bad quality jobs. Clearly there is an immigration connection to this accountant, pls explain...

Yes, the accountant was raided by Home Office and NOT by HMRC. Only OP can can confirm why he was raided by HO. As you know of this Birmingham raid (which may or may not be same accountant as OP) do you know prima facie why was raided? Does this firm specialize in immigration matters? I think he wa...

Raided by HO not HMRC? (I googled HO raid accountant found ...

For clarification Home Office raided accountant not HMRC or other financial related body?

Yes Home Office.

Option 1: Maybe call HMRC and ask them if they can send a copy of the missing documents you have listed. Also, I am sure if you know the hourly rate and number of days each employee works/worked, then your new accountant can generate a new payslip using his software. Option 2: Try and log onto HMRC...

Very sorry to hear about this. Copy of payslips can perhaps be taken from employees? Do you have your HMRC login info? A basic version of the FPS can be found there. The HMRC does in some cases send out copies of full FPS. Ring them again and tell them that you need it to get your payroll running a...
