Thanks Aman for your reply.. really appreciate it.aman90 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 01, 2019 9:42 pmIts hard to believe that they would just simply scrap transitional arrangement earlier than stated and so close to the date as there are probably hundreds applying keeping it in view and aiming to do it just before 6th April 2019.
It would be very unfair on the applicants.
Part C-
(i) an overview of your business’s activity, including an explanation of the goods or services it provides to its customers or clients; and
(ii) your job title and job description, setting out your role within the company, how you are implementing your business plan and what your main tasks and responsibilities are in running the business on a day-to-day basis.
A cover letter explaining the above should suffice as a "specified document"
To strengthen it, perhaps couple of invoices or contract. If one has a website a link to it.
They'll probably be in touch to find out more if they feel so..
Thanks Aman for your quick reply, you are right that accountant letter about my job, my role, my responsibilities and company will weigth more than self explanation but some accountant will not write it due to some reason.aman90 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2019 2:49 pmI don’t think any document could be incorrect at this point as nothing has been categorically specified..
It’s just:
A snapshot of the business activities and the applicants role.
A companies website usually contains its profile and the applicants profile is evident from the CV.
Accountants are respected professionals and are expected to state facts. And also some applicants may have difficulty in articulating eloquently. So a good idea actually,
If one is writing it up oneself than:
Invoices and contracts would support the company’s profile.
Hi, in regards to section c and 2 points I believe you are referring extension section not settlement, could you please have a look again and confirm tier11417 & Aman can you also confirm ?Mak9878 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2019 10:02 pmHi Marcnath, Zimba, all seniors and juniors,
Hope you all are at best of your health.
I am ready with all documents and online application form. Started application form from 22nd March.
I have really no idea about new changes that whether they apply to me i.e pre-april 2014 or not.
If you see statement of changes 7th March 2019, its states:
“Changes are being made to provide greater assurance that Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrants are genuinely engaged in business. Applicants will be asked to provide an overview of their business’s activity, details of their role within the business, and the job titles/descriptions for the settled worker employees for whom they are claiming points. The government has judged it proportionate to apply these changes to future extension and settlement applications by entrepreneurs already in the category.”
And if you see new guidance under Business Activity part-c on page 27 version 03/2019, states that
"C:) Regardless of whether you are self-employed, a director or member, you must also
rovide:
(i) an overview of your business's activity, including an explanation of the goods or
services it provides to its customers or clients; and
(ii) your job title and job description, setting out your role within the company, how you
are implementing your business plan and what your main tasks and responsibilities
are in running the business on a day-to-day basis."
In the statement of changes and new guidance, there is nothing mentioned that it will apply from 6th April 2019, that in my opinion it apply since 29 March 2019 to pre april and post april.
They have cancelled pre-april transitional arrangement as well from 29th March 2019 as in new guidance nothing mention for transitional arrangement.
After looking at both statement of changes and new guidance, both are different. In statement of changes (7 march), they are asking about job titles and description about settled workers but other side in new guidance (29 March) it just ask about Director role, responsibilities, director title and job description.
My application is ready, just confused about that has transitional arrangement been ended on 29 March?
If transitional arrangement has not been ended, does this new change in Business Activity under part-c (29 march guidance) applies to me as well or not?
If new changes in Business Activity part-c applies to me, what formal documents should be provided for director (as it just ask about director job, director description etc)? I believe here they are not asking about an self explanation of director job role, responsibilies, business overview etc.
Waiting for your reply anxiously.
Thanks for your time.
I think you are talking about below it says or and it applies on those who are applying settlement in 3 years obv they have to show employment and genuine business all that which 5 years route already shown during the time of extension. Does it make sense ? what you think if you are applying via 3 years route then you need to show if 5 years then it doesn't apply on you. That is table F. Correct me if I am wrong. Moreover I don't think we need to look at extension's requirement. Let see what other says because I never heard about it before

(a) You have spent a continuous period of 5 years lawfully in the UK with leave as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant,
or
(b) You have spent a continuous period of 3 years lawfully in the UK with leave as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant, and have:
(i) created the equivalent of at least 10 (including the two jobs already relied upon to score points under row 3) new full time jobs, which meet the requirements in row 3 above, or
(ii) established a new UK business or businesses that has or have had a gross income from business activity of at least £5 million during the 3 year continuous period, or
(iii) taken over or invested in an existing UK business or businesses and your services or investments have resulted in a net increase in gross income from business activity of £5 million during the 3 year continuous period, when compared to the 3 year periods immediately before the date the applicant became involved with the business as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant.

I m making application on the basis of 5 years spent on this Tier 1 Entrepreneur.
What I am saying, you are not getting properly.
Business Activity Section-C on page 27 of new guidance issued on 29 March 2019 have 2 points. Which applies to both extensions and settlements.
I said you the both table does not say anything about this thing. But offcourse we have to meet table documents, online checklist and guidance as well.
Lets see what other say about this. Waiting for our admin for correction, suggestion and guidance on it.

I understand what you saying but my point is why would you look at extension section when you are applying for settlement, you just need to fulfil settlement requirements which is employement etc. I am sure all other members will agree on this. Let see

Yes transitional arrangement applies to job creation. Only for people who applied thier initial application before April 2014 (also known as pre-april 2014 transitional arrangement). In which you can combine different job titles job together to claim one full time job irrespective of period they worked for you (employees should have worked for your after your grant of extension or initial application).shb101 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2019 7:51 pmHi Both,rajbhanu300 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2019 6:39 pmHi Shb101 and Mak9878, looking at your discussions, i am also confused as to which extra docs. do we have to submit in order to prove the said changes in the guidance.Please let me know as well if you are submitting anything else apart from the previous specified docs as i am also applying soon.(Before transitional arrangements ends)
If I am not wrong then transitional arrangement is only apply on jobs creation ? Correct me if I am wrong.

ILR applicants applying on or after 29/03/19 are required to submit:
Table 6
1.(c) regardless of whether the applicant is self-employed, a director or member, they must also provide:
(i) an overview of the business’s activity, including an explanation of the goods or services it provides to its customers or clients; and
(ii) the applicant’s job title and job description, setting out their role within the company, how they are implementing their business plan and what their main tasks and responsibilities are in running the business on a day-to-day basis.
2.(c) confirmation of the employment start date, job title, job description, hours paid per pay period and the hourly rate for each settled worker relied upon, including any changes to the same and the dates of those changes;
No. It’s applicable to both extension n settlement applicants submitting after or on 29/03/19
It doesn't say that it's applicable for both however it is mentioned in extension section, my concern is why would you look at extenstion section for documents. Moreover I would say keep your case as simple as possible.aman90 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 03, 2019 10:06 amNo. It’s applicable to both extension n settlement applicants submitting after or on 29/03/19
The flow confirms it on the link I’ve posted above.
Mak is correct.
Anyways it’s fairly fresh so best not to go overboard with documents
The guidance will probably be updated again in a few days or weeks ( as I’ve folllowed)
Keep it simple and brief. Don’t set far reaching examples for others to follow..
I think you are talking about below which was copied from the link you sent if you see point 48 onwards it clearly says it's for new business or while making an application. It doesn't say for ILR. Correct me if I am wrong.aman90 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 03, 2019 10:32 amI would have agreed with you if I hadn’t read from table 6 onwards..

The flow of info confirms it as does the statement of changes..
I guess some of you can feel free not to accept it and that’s ok..you’ve justified it from ur understanding. And if I hadn’t read ALL the related docs but only the guidance I may have agreed with it.. I’ve never liked the flow of information on the guidance..
my only fear is that by not explaining ur business, ur role, and ur jobs descriptions may delay applications and require you an interview attendance or worse an over worked caseworker may just refuse it for the lack of it and get the applicants running around at the time of admin review.
