On average the whole process takes 6 to 8 weeks in most cases. Some people might hear the outcome sooner some later but this usually depends on the complexity of an application.

As I suggested to many on this forum, I strictly followed the document requirements in the guide and Immigration Rules Appendix A. I did not write a covering letter and did not send any extra documents. I transferred my 200K investment in a single transaction to my business. I received the IHS refund of £200, two days after my visa was issued.

The list of all the documents I sent:

Personal documents
- Passport and BRP
- Police registration document
- Two Passport size photos
- Personal bank statements showing £945 maintenance for 90 consecutive days

Investment Evidence
- Unaudited accounts and compilation report (showing Director's loan investment under my name) prepared by a Chartered accountant
- Director's Loan agreement (Prepared by business solicitor)
- Single Business bank statement showing the investment transfer under my name to my business

Evidence for being the director of a UK registered business
- Current Appointments Report including the filing history (Download for free from companies house website)
- CT600 from last year
- The most recent business bank statement, single page

Job creation document
- 12 months payslips for two full time employees
- FPS reports showing the starting dates
- P11 for both employees showing the starting dates
- Employees passport copy, UK passports

Congrats Zimba,

Quick question regarding Investment for 200k

1) Do we need to send all 3 yrs business bank statement to show investment came from Director or Only that pages where transactions made.

I have put only 15000 in first year and remaining money in last 3 months of this year before my extension.is that ok ? (only because nature of business where i don't need that much fund)
