Hi I applied mid of last month its my 2nd application so hopefully will hear soon from them I have seen ppl on this forum getting the decision in almost 2 months after making the fresh application but it all depends on HO. As soon as I hear anything from them I will let u know. Do you have news yet...

Congratulations... Could you inform how long it took? My first application took nearly 8 months. The fresh one took just over 2 months. Were you allowed to work(as a director) while you were waiting for the result of the fresh application? Do you know how they would calculate your time for your 5 y...

Hi, I am in a same boat like you ( some other investment issue)I have reinvested the money and applied for the fresh application, try to reinvest the money ASAP. I know one guy who has invested from his personal account also he bought fixture and fittings money went to the previous owner visa got r...

I think you should go for share capital if HO does not accept investment made after initial visa expiry. Your accountant will do it for u; convert DL into share capital, prepare new accounts, amend with companies house. About confirmation report you can ask companies house if required to be amended...

Investment must be done during initial visa time frame otherwise will not be accepted. I suggest to rely only on original documents with HO for fresh application and send new copies for others. What about share capital option then? Accountant said they can do it backdated in accounts. What evidence...

After AR, for a fresh application, can I do it in UK? My visa has expired in Dec while waiting for the decision.

By following Accounting standard it is possible to change Director's Equity position from Director Loan to Share Capital, however, that is not how it works in the world of immigration rules! Immigration Rules required the Investment to be made during the initial period and changing the Equity posit...

Not this time. It was submitted for the initial application 3 and half years ago.

Last account was submitted mid 2016. Initial stay expired early Dec 2016.

Sorry to hear about your rejection. It seems to be a very harsh decision. Was it 200K visa ? Is your wife in UK on a dependent visa ? When were the funds transferred just before extension or some time back ? Has the money been spend to run the business. Did you get points for all other attributes 2...

If in your initial leave you showed the same funds and also specified the access of funds via wife's account then without a doubt you should be fine. There is a 50/50 chance how AR would go but as Zimba88 suggested, Share Capital seems to be a feasible option under this circumstances. Consult with ...

So did you submit any of the documents I mentioned above? Also how was your name shown in the bank statement for that transaction? I mean yr personal name or director or yr wife's name? Bank statements of business account show both my name and my wife's name in separate transactions. A supporting l...

The rules require you to transfer the money from your own account for DL. Alternative ways are NOT accepted. I suggest to instead claim that you have invested via share capital, change the accounts, prepare the required documents and apply afresh Could you explain more please? What new documents ar...

a paragraph 46-SD they refer to is below. iii)If the applicant has made the investment in the form of a director’s loan, it must be shown both in the relevant set of financial accounts provided, and through readily identifiable transactions in the applicant’s business bank statements, which must cle...

My application for extension was refused with the reason below. I had to transfer money from my country to UK business account. But my country set a limit in transferring money to abroad. With this reason, part of the investment money was transferred to the UK business account from my wife's name. I...
