Re: job creation calcuation

From the calculation above it looks you should be fine.. HO will disregard hours above 130 but will consider hours such as 120 or 126.. I would assume this is due to the calculations of weeks during those months?

Hi, Does it mean you still have 50K for investment untouched as Cash. If yes, then you will need to transfer those from personal to Business under your name(as per UKVI requirement). He can still show 50K as DL but under different section and your End of year closing balance will be 50K plus assumin...

Re: Legal Action to Urge Home Office for Decision

It is unclear how HR to private/family life - which is a qualified right and not an absolute right - has even the remotest connection to any visa application. That has an absolute connection with visa application (Tier 1 Ent. or any other visa route including EU family members visa). If a business ...

Re: Legal Action to Urge Home Office for Decision

There is no legal basis to challenge Home Office in that way. Even though very small number of Tier 1E visas are being issued every year (far less than Tier 2), unfortunately the route has been extensively abused and as the MAC report shows, only a small portion of the applicants managed to extend ...

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...
