ILR checks on any type of application ( T1) or LR with a mixture of T1 will be scrutinized for tax and NI affairs.

More fun when you go for Naturalization

underpaid tax and overpaid tax is collected / refunded by HMRC via P800 not SA ( for PAYE).

unless OP has income that is not declared then SA is required, hope this is clear.

People help when you have a genuine query. Who have not even ready the Tier1 G policy Settlement Guidance or chapter 6A.

Get your basics right first! No point point arguing

its so appalling to see posts like these where no effort has been made to understand requirements, eligibility, not settled TAX affairs. And will continue in the citizenship section.

Just simply annoyed.!

There is nothing called ILR dependent, its purely a dependent renewal /extension

Please make the effort of reading eligibility for dependents? have you done that?

you will need to apply for an extension and pay NHS surcharge

ILR begins on the date of approval at PSC, not sure of postal applications.

You can apply for citizenship only after one year on ILR

Def not required. As long as income was purely PAYE

The more documentation the better from both Accountant and HMRC

Employment history and any P60s help CW to understand employment period for the 5 year period and a good way of checking previous Tier1 applications for implications of PAYE or SE tax/NI issues.

I was on Post study work visa for 2 years before that and was on student visa for about 16 months prior to that. In section 12L it asks for 2 things. Evidence specified in...

Just use the option : "YES" and explain in a cover sheet or a page stating reasons of unemployment, as long as the salary income to prove points is in reach you are good to go.

underpayments and over payments from PAYE incomes is fine when applying for ILR/ Citizenship, if the amount is less than 3000 pounds its automatically collected from next tax year PAYE and tax code is adjusted. I had a difference of 260 pounds diff due to private insurance and P11Ds from 2011/12 and...

Shouldnt be a problem.
Go with the basis that if you were required to show say 30000 pounds for extension. HO will expect the amount declared / taxed on the total earnings for the same amount HO has.


e.g If you have shown 35k to HO as total earnings , they will verify 35K with HMRC

well, then find a good competent accountant.

didnt your accountant mention key dates in a tax year, its all well documented on HMRC's website . Responsibilities as a tax payer. ( SE) and sole trader.

its not about SA320 or a P800 or a P60, If you earn £XX,XXX and show the same earnings to Home office, They expect you to pay taxes on the same. Its not rocket science.

Tax and immigration are two different things, As a responsible person, who have to pay your taxes on time and not blame your accountant. When you are registered as a Self Employed person and register your company all guidelines must be followed. I have been saying this time and again, before applyin...

Coming to Uk for a job and going back after an offer is perfectly fine. I know many who were also in a similar position and were granted Settlement, as long as absences are within the 180 day limit.

Explaining this in a cover letter is more than enough!.

your son will need to be naturalized first. As he was born in UK when you as a parent had no settlement status
