Re: T1E extension refused . Need advise for AR

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...

Re: T1E extension refused . Need advise for AR

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 y...

Re: combining Part time jobs

Hi,

I am of the opinion that you only have to show the existence of the jobs you provided in your initial extension which in this case would be from 2014. You can sustain the same jobs or create new jobs.

Hope it helps..

Thanks

Re: Part Time Job Creation Confusion

I guess if you count the total number of hrs for all the part time employees you can work it out . According to your table above looks like you have approx 2227 hrs in total until dec. 2227 / 30 per week max =74.23 weeks job 74.23 weeks / 4.33 (approx weeks per month ) =17.14 months job .

Re: Part Time Job Creation Confusion

There is no clear guide or rules on part time hours. However you can add them together to reach min of 30 hours a week. I made an attempt to show how to calculate the hours for part time workers here: http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tier-1-entrepreneur-visas/criteria-for-hours-calculation-apply...

It is misconception that a month is 4 weeks or 120 hours work, it is NOT. It is actually on average 4.33 weeks :roll: HO requires ONLY 130 hours a month or 30 hours week for full time role, more hours are discarded.

Re: job Hours calculation

The refusal reason in the screenshot suggests they considered upto 130 hours but for last two years. As the decision is already with your friend I would assume transitional arrangements does apply to the applicant. So what else was missed??
