Hi I had a case where my profits as per self-assessments submitted to HMRC were more than the profits claimed in previous Tier 1 (General) extension and the earnings used for extension fell between two tax periods. It is fine as long as the profits as per self-assessments submitted to HMRC are not l...

Hi

It's Section 13, page 86 of the form (version 04-16) if the account with the utility company is in the joint names of the applicant and other people (dependant in your case).

That's how I would interpret.

Thanks

Thanks mate. I entered UK in Aug 2011 and started working as a contractor for an Umbrella company and by definition it is considered to be 'employed'. I started contracting through my own Ltd company in Oct 2012 so self-assessments were done for the period Oct 2012 to Apr 2013 which I submitted with...

Hi folks, It’s time to return the favours. My ILR has been approved today at Croydon PEO and I am really thankful to the forum and the members. I will cut the chase as we all know the drill. Employment: Director (Ltd Company) Appointment: 8.40am. Documents submitted, biometrics captured and photogra...

I thought this was pretty straightforward "Yes or No".

Hi chaps, I will be applying for my ILR soon and these are list of documents I wish to provide as evidence of earnings: Accountant letter with Income schedule. Payslips. Dividend vouchers. Personal bank statements. Business bank statements. Agency Invoices. Self-Assessment statements for previous ye...

Thanks Wanderer

In my original post, I'm referring to a company secretary earning dividends and a not a director of Ltd company. I agree that all directors have to fill in SA302.

Thanks

Hi Do directors of a Ltd company have to submit self-assessments/tax returns to HMRC for their shareholders for the dividends withdrawn? Does it impact the ILR of a person (director of a Ltd company in this case) as the shareholder earnings are anyways not considered as part of the earnings for ILR ...

Hi guys, I have a similar case where my dividends withdrawn fell into two FY. For my last Tier1 extension, earnings claimed were for the period Nov 2013-Oct 2014 and I went for extension in Nov 2014. So dividends withdrawn for the period Nov 2013 to Mar 2014 appear in Apr 2014 and dividends withdraw...

I absolutely agree with 'sunny_suny', a director is an employee of his own Ltd company so he is obliged to pay both employees and employers NI. Someone who has not paid and is due for ILR is inviting a definite rejection. Anyone who is earning more than £150/week has to pay Class 1 NI. This topic ha...

Hi Karthik_513 I have a similar case where my earnings shown to HMRC is more than the earnings used for gaining points during my last Tier1G extension. This might be due to the difference of period for self assessment to HMRC and period used for extension to HO. In my case extension period used was ...

Thanks geriatrix for your reply. I have found some links from gov.uk website to get the employment history.

Hi chaps, These days, I am reading lots of post from guys having their ILR applications turned down due to tax discrepancies mainly the self-employed ones. There are cases where people inflated their earnings during past applications and paid less tax. Also, there are ones who thought their accounta...

Hi guys, There is no point in flogging the dead horse. Looking at the latest SET(O) Section 4, it is pretty much clear that you need to have an IELTS at Level B1 or a letter from UK NARIC plus a letter from your University (if outside UK) to prove your medium of instruction as English irrespective o...

Hi abhishek9, I have my ILR due in July this year. Even I am in a similar situation as you are but I had my IELTS test taken last year on 18-April-15 with level C1 which is more than what is required for ILR. I am not sure if I can use the same cert. or sit for a new one which satisfies ILR requirem...

Hi geriatrix, The reason I posted my queries on Tier 1(g) forum was because even though I would be applying for settlement, I still consider myself as Tier1(g) migrant. As abhishek9 pointed out it was much easier to address the issues where most of people are still Tier1 and will understand better t...

Hi abhishek9 Apologies, I misread it. Settlement & Citizenship applications will need SELT irrespective of the route. I was searching for Tier 1 (General) on that list. There is no reprieve as we will have to take IELTS Life Skills at level B1 as UK NARIC does not list Tier 1 (general). We just have...

Hi abhishek9, I may be wrong but have a look at the link below. Currently Tier1 (General) is not listed under ‘Which immigration routes require a SELT’ in FAQs for candidates. I believe applicants applying for settlement under Tier1 (General) route do not require SELT that’s why it’s not listed on U...

Can I use my year old IELTS cert. or do I still need UK NARIC to assess?
Hoping to get a reply soon.

Thanks.

Hi tulipz, I had a similar query few months ago before I made my application. See link below. http://www.immigrationboards.com/canada-forum/jobs-under-canadian-express-entry-system-t198098.html Read points 1 and 2. Now I’d put it this way, why would CIC issue an ITA to someone without a job offer. A...

Hi

You don't really need an immigration consultant to apply. All the required information is very well given on the CIC website.

Hi tulipz, You wrote "I read on the website that invitations are being sent out for 470+ scores. Who gets 470+ out of max 500" ??? Where did you read this? I have been through the website with a fine toothed comb. There is nothing on CIC website which tells you this. I will be intrigued to know this...

Hi tulipz, I will try to answer your queries based on my capability and experience. I have already applied last month and I am into the pool competing with others. See my response below. 1. Is my understanding of the process correct? You will need to take IELTS first and have a minimum band of 6 in ...

Hi folks The intention is not to hijack the post but query something which is relevant to the topic. May be others might be in a similar situation as I am. For my initial application and all my subsequent extensions I proved my English language skills based on “degree taught in English” option avail...

Hi, I am lining up my ducks to apply for Canadian PR under express entry system. I have entered my details under ‘Come to Canada Tool’ and found that I am eligible to apply. I will be creating an express entry profile and register in the job bank in next few months which will rank me against others ...
