I got my kids passport delivered earlier today and Milton Keynes has been spelled as Miltown Keynes.

We have a travel plan for February half term (mid February). Can one travel with this error on passport and submit for correction once back?

OR is is better to get it corrected first?

just bumping up the post for attention

Use the earliest date on a document you had. For absences, the absences in the first period should be calculated on a yearly basis and after extension, on rolling basis Thanks Zimba. Just for clarification. 1st period of leave = Initial 3 Years & 4 month 2nd period of leave = 2 Years of extension R...

In order to be ready for the extension application, I have started gathering documents and got a few questions after reading the guidance. Personal Timeline 1st BRP issue date - 09/03/2017 Entry ...

Hi A T1 Entrepreneur can have salary income abroad in a company he is holding 45+ percentage share but not a director? The guidelines says T1 Entrepreneur should not work for other companies. So directorship is important or shareholding will be enough? Great if someone can answer Thanks as far as m...

Hello Moderators and Members, Filed for Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant claim after PAP and JR Grounds and have received a Consent Order from the HO now. Relied on paragraph 245AA evidential flexibility rules and policy guidance after submitting a key document from the VC (unconditional funding avail...

I have a question regarding the documents I need to carry on the day of biometrics appointment. As per my understanding from the forum, we don't need to carry any supporting documents along apart from Original Passport and BRP. However, the UKVCAS portal and well as confirmation email suggests to ca...

Thanks! I got one booked in for 17th August.

As long as your salary+ car costs have not exceeded the revenue generated at any time, you should be ok. So if you took salary in month 5, the revenue generated until that time has to be greater than the salary

Thanks! this clears up the confusion.

It is not possible to answer this without knowing about your business. Has the business been generating revenue ? When has the revenue been generated? and so on.

the business has been generating revenue from month 1 and have continued to do so every month since then.

What do you mean by"acceptable" expense? There is no such thing under immigration rules.

say I have invested 220k till now and have taken out 25k as Director's Salary and bought a 20k EV car, would HO still consider me to have invested 220k OR would they consider it as 175k?

Hi All, I am preparing my T1E 200k Extension application that is due in mid July 2020. I have two (02) questions. 1. Salary paid to myself (Director) under PAYE count towards acceptable expense by HO? 2. I have bought an Electric Vehicle (EV) on company's name in order to avail the tax benefits avai...

You specify the hourly rate. Monthly salary/hourly rate = hours

so if I pay someone £1,200 monthly, I have choice either to show number of hours as (roughly 140) if I show hourly rate as £8.50 per hour OR I can show the number of hours as (roughly 145) if I show hourly rate as £8.25?

Hi, I pay my employees a fixed amount on a monthly basis. My extension is due by mid July 2020 and would like to calculate if the wages are inline with HO guidelines of 30 hrs/week & 130 hrs/month OR whether I need a revision. How does the calculation work in case the employees are being paid a fixe...

Thanks Zimba.

I assume the period between the issue of entry clearance and entering the UK is less than 180 days.

Yes, I did enter within 2 weeks of the issuance of entry clearance to form the company & to collect BRP. Didn't formally move to UK till September 2017.

Dear All, I have been granted Entry Clearance under T1E 200k in March 2017. The initial application took 18 months hence I didn't move to UK before September 2017 as I had to wrap up things back home. The company however was created in April 2017. I have been actively doing e-commerce business since...

Not sure where you get that from. The PBS guidance says: 70. If the Tier 1 Migrant has been in the United Kingdom for 12 months or more , you must have £630 to support yourself. I agree but here we are talking about support/maintenance for kids (child). isn't it? Who is applying for a PBS Dependent...

Congratulations on the new arrivals. 1. Just for the dependants - £1260 2. Yes, I haven't seen anything in the rules that says it has to be a UK bank account Were they born in the UK ? If so, just curious why you are applying for the dependant visa ? Are you planning to travel ? Thanks! yes, they w...

I have got a couple of questions regarding the maintenance. 1. Since I will be making application for the...
