Hi Gurus,
Sorry to be a bother, I need your help/advise. I'm now in the processing of submitting my ILR application through the LR route this week. I have partially completed the form (Set LR) online, there are a couple of questions that I require clarification on what the ideal responses should be, hope you can help/give me a steer.
Family Ties
Do you have any family in your country of birth,
nationality or any other country where you have
lived for more than 5 years?
1. I have provided details of my Mum & siblings in my home country. Is this appropriate?
Do you have any friends in your country of birth, No
nationality or any other country where you have
lived for more than 5 years?
2.What should be the response here?Friends in UK or my home country? I will imagine the former would be the ideal response to avoid issues with the decision of the application. I possibly cant list all my friends, how many names need to be included?
Cultural Ties
Are you part of any social groups or do you have No
other cultural ties in your country of birth,
nationality or any other country where you have
lived for more than 5 years?
3. What should be the response here?I imagine this would be groups/ties here in the UK. Any examples would really help.
Employment
4. Currently, I'm on Tier 1 Entrepreneur extension visa valid till April 2020. I have selected self employed on the form as my employment status. Is this right?
5. My company registered address is different from my business address. The registered address is my house address whilst the business address is a non residential address.Which do I need to provide on the form?
6. There is a question on annual earnings,does the amount have an impact on the outcome of the application? Is there a cap or threshold required considering am currently on Tier 1 Ent.? My annual earning in 2018 is higher than 2019 as I was paid dividend in addition to my salary.
Considering, am the director of the business,do I submit my annual earnings or the business income?
Travel History(UK)
7. There is a question on being refused a visa previously. My initial Tier 1 Ent. application was refused. I appealed in time to the first tier tribunal(won the appeal), but the decision was challenged by home office
and the second appeal was also submitted in time prior to the visa being successfully granted.Will this affect the decision of the ILR? What is the appropriate response,do I answer Yes or No ?
Other Reasons
8. The question about other reasons for wanting to be in the UK, i do not have any kids neither a partner/dependents, is the appropriate response No? or do I answer Yes and I give reasons along having lived here for awhile,integrated well into my community, formed relationships with friends, colleagues and spent a part of my adult life here?
Apologies for the long post/questions, I'm just anxious and I want to get this right prior to submission to avoid any issues.
Regards,
