Questions for switch WP -> Tier 1

Hi. I am applying for Tier 1 the next week. Can you please help me and answer the following questions.
1) I apply with my wife(dependent) I keep maintenance funds on our joint current account. Is there any problem if I want to prove my earnings and maitenance funds by using the same statements? Or it is better to use statements from current account to prove earnings and from saving account to prove funds?
2) There are Home Office reference number and worker reference number in the application form. I can find worker reference number in my work Permit but I can not find a HO reference. Can anyone tell me where can I find it or maybe I should not fill the data in the form?
3)My current status is Work Permit Holder or Visa Work Permit

Thank you for your help

You can use the same account for both EARNINGS and Maintenance FUNDS as long as your name (being the main applicant) is there on any 1 or many accounts..

2) There are Home Office reference number and worker reference number in the application form. I can find worker reference number in my work Permit but I can not find a HO reference. Can anyone tell me where can I find it or maybe I should not fill the data in the form?

YES just fill hte WOrker reference number for your current WP.. leave the HO Ref number..

3)My current status is Work Permit Holder or Visa Work Permit

VISA WORK PERMIT as it is typed in your passport on visa..

Yes you can use joint statement for maintenance funds. (Seniors please correct is i am wrong)

I did not provide with the HO reference (left is blank).. Just the WP number when i filed my initial application.

3)My current status is Work Permit Holder or Visa Work Permit

It would be Visa Work Permit.

Thank you for your prompt responses.
I have one more question:
Is it necessary to write in the cover letter that I use the same statements for both earnings and funds? And should my wife in her cover letter mention that?

I suggest you or anybody to USE the Covering letter as a media to explain each and every evidence/ proof you are submitting for each section and explain in simple words so that it makes the case worker easy to understand your case instead of he himself going through those doc's and understand things which can only result in further delay..

Once you send ur application there is no other way you can interact with the caseworker.. so use the opportunity/ option of cover letter

for samples of coverletters check the STICKY on the top

goodluck

Thank you very much ramesh for your valuable advise. Maybe you know if there is any information about how to order the documents before sending them to HO?
