6-Month Compliance After Visa Approved

Post by londondweller2020 » Wed Apr 22, 2020 8:54 am

Dear all,

I am nearing my 6-month mark after being granted leave for the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa. As I was reviewing the latest PBS guidance dated 29 March 2019, this particular section stood out to me:

Evidence to show they met the criteria required immediately after entry to the UK

The applicant must provide evidence to show they registered with HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) within 6 months of their specified date.

The specified date can be the date of any of:
• their entry to the UK (if they were given entry clearance and have evidence of the date of entry)
• their grant of entry clearance
• their grant of leave to remain if they applied in the UK


I am wondering whether this means I need to physically/digitally submit evidence (e.g. CAR, HMRC UTR letter) to UKVI by this date OR I have to provide this with my extension application (which will be 2.5 years past the 6-month mark)? If the latter, would the fact that the documents are issued and dated before the 6-month mark suffice as evidence?

Thanks.
