when asked on the interview in Sept 2nd, (Q14) your profit and lost account for the year ending 2015, about your other incomes which was £19,000, can you name 3 top clients of yours which you did, but there is no indication in your business bank statement of the names of this clients of yours.

when asked at the interview (Q17) about your profit and lost for the year ended 2015 of an administrative cost of £30,0000. Can you provide details of how the money was spent.
You replied YES, the expenses includes insurance policy, through the federation of small businesses, rent, car for the running of the business, wages.

you were unable to clearly state how you spent the £30k

At the interview, (Q32) you were asked if you have invested the £50k and for breakdown if yes.

your replied that majority was spent on furniture and fittings, this is to sort the property where we are to give a corporate image and that took money, furnitures, carpets, an automatic door lock system, cold and hot water system, security alarms and CCTV, TELECOMs and computer trunking and wiring movable partitions.

----I can find NO payment to any company within your business bank statement that would provide this products.

---We also have a google map printout from august 2016 of your address showing a different business name.
-- We would expect a business that has invested such in the premises as claimed in the interview to prioritise the exterior of their premises to show their business.
This leads us to doubt the credibility of your financial accounts.

(iv) The credibility of your business activity in the UK
At the interview, you were asked (Q9,10 AND 11)

How do you get your clients?
You replied -- Marketing is the backbone of businesses and referral is focused once we have a client, we offer them trust and then they pass on their experience with us to others and get referrals.

what method do you use?

you answered, we have a website and do use social media as well.

how many clients have you attracted in the last 3 months through social media

you answered "i can't say exactly, but about 3

---your website has not been updated for about 3 years now.


at Interview, you were asked (Q28) What service do you provide for these contracts?

You replied--- The services we provide,---- businesses are being left handicapped, they need professionals to help them and guide them, so we come in to bridge the gap to give professional advice on management policies and how to enhance their performance.


--- These replies do not reflect the information on your website that state that you provide a wide range of business consultancy nor do they explain the services you provided.

Companies house shows that you deal on Whole sale of lighting and furniture, lighting equipment and and Management consultancy activities other than financial management.

--You have never mentioned Wholesale of Furniture and Lighting at the interview. and you never mentioned anything about the business name on your business address.

(V) THE CREDIBILITY OF JOB CREATION
no specific concern in this area.

(vi) other relevant information
NO specific concern in this area.

What is your question???

What are your responses to each point of refusal??

It is unreasonable to post a long refusal with only 'PLEASE COULD ANYONE ASSIST ME HERE. MANY THANKS' without you providing any information as to why HO is correct or not correct.

I sympathise with you. I don't think UKVI are truly qualified to assess genuine entrepreneurship, so these cases can happen.

Expecting a business owner to remember every single transaction in a three year period is unrealistic.

So is the expectation that 4 months of bank statements is expected to reflect all transactions they would like to see.

Having said that, an entrepreneur is expected to be clear on his/her business objectives, strategies, etc. and some of the answers could have been done better - maybe you were nervous or something.

But, unfortunately, this is your business and it is difficult to help you with that as we would not know the details needed.

As CR001 said, if you have any specific questions, please do ask those.

Did you submit 3 years business bank statements,
I think yes, because they checked all incomes into your business bank account.

I think sending the recent 4 or 3 months bank statements will be better to avoid problems such that.

The evidence documents only show 4 months statements.
But there are still quite a few extra documents that were submitted.
I agree with @jafersadeq that you should only submit the minimum required documents.
Submitting only the exact documents needed conveys your confidence in your application. And the CW has to do the extra work to ask for additional documents, if they want to investigate. That already gives you an idea of what they are looking for so you can submit accordingly.

Hi very sad to hear ur refusal. But do not despair. Could you please tell me did u attend interview at the time initial application?

I have read your refusal 3 times and I found many dark areas. The first question they raised about £19000 income. And you have only submitted 4 month Business Bank Statement. So most of the question they asked from the submitted accounts. If you are in position to justify these £19000 so you can include it in admin review. If these £19000 not showing the bank statement you submitted but its showing on previous bank statement with clients u have mention the name so u can go ahead.

Second question they raised about £30000 you spent. Which u stated that the money spent on wages and other expenses. Again the same issue you submitted only 4 months statement , so if you have record of these spent like invoices or proper bank transactions so you can clarify in admin review.

Other questions like business address, Website not updated for last three years, marketing strategies and etc are all irrelevant and I do not find any major issue.

The last and very important or darkest side is the services you have mentioned on your website do not match the actual services you have mentioned in interview I don't know why? even companies house has different business information as well and also you did not mention business name at your business address.

I would like to ask you a few question

1. Are you operating from home?
2. Are you operating from Business Centre where other business exits?
3. Did you apply alone?
4. How long you have been in the UK. (Think you came here in 2009)
5. Do you have any family life here.

They have no issue with your source of funds and employment creation the only issue is, you used the Accountant which I think he failed to manage your accounts. Most likely you tell your accountant about your income and expenditure break down.

The same think was happened with my accounts. My accountant rung me and told me the accounts are ready to send. I hold him and visited him where I found he break the expenditure wrongly so I spent least 3 hours with him to correct the figures.

I advise you to go in Admin review and than go yo JR.

Please answer my question.

Please answer my question.
--------------------------------

Many thanks for attending to my post. I came to the UK July 2008,

What happened is that i operate more than one businesses, but i only used the management consultancy service for the tier 1 entrepreneur VISA because other of my businesses are not classified as graduate activity. The sign on the shop and the business name is still mine but not exactly the company i used for the application.

**so my business is registered with the Company House and HMRC on that address as where i operate from.
**My application is on the 50k category and i applied alone.
** My wife and children are all here as my defendants.
** My wife joined me 5 years ago, my first daughter is 6 years now, but she was not born here. She joined me when she was just 4 months. I have other kids of the age of 4yr and 2yr born in the UK.

i present business bank statement for about 12months period just to show when the 50k came in to my business account, and that is the only reason i sent 12months statement.

Please, i need advice on how to clear the air about the different name/sign on that my business address.
Again, any general advice would be appreciated.

thanks

the question about the £19,000 was picked from my company's financial account ended year 2015 not from my bank account. Its from account submitted to the Company's house. the £19k is other income while the £30k is also declared in the finacial statement as adminstrative cost(expenses). this money was spent from the 70k i invested, though 50k is the required amount but just invested 70k.

How many companies you have registered? Operating other business is not a issue. Also let me know what kind of business you claim in your application and business type?

R u in position to justify £19000? How this money came into your account? or it was a cash sale? Normally Accountant follow BANK STATEMENT and this is the accounting rule anything you can spend via bank statement or take the cash out from the Business for some purpose.

You have only few points to clear. Ask your accountant how you satisfy the Admin Review team. Also can u pls tell me how long you are away from your daughter 7 years residence in UK? give me the exact date.

If you have grounds to cover your point so i suggest you to go in Admin Review otherwise you can submit Human right application on behalf of private life in the UK. Through this you can gain time and your daughter will fall under 7 years category.

These are the stupid reasons of refusals I ever come across.
Now you have less than a year to complete 10 years.
Go for admin review and try to give as much information as possible and if nothing comes out then go for human rights or you can reapply to gain time.

Hi,

Sorry to hear about your refusal,

Elephant in the room is, you invested all the money only 12 mths & you have provided 12 mths bank statements. So UKVI has absolutely all the data with them. If they are saying they can't find any details of expanses, income in those 12months than how did u spend and earn these amounts,

Once again, many thanks for your time. My daughter came to england in February 2012 and she was only 4months then. I have only 12months or less to complete 10 years continuous resident in the UK.

I only registered one Company which is business management consultancy firm (we give business advice and formulate strategies for small businesses), though i included in the company House other SIC code that shows that i do other businesses like whole sale of equipments other than management consulting. But in my interview, i never mentioned such because its immaterial as i was not claiming point from such.


For the £19k, it is a cash and bank transfer payments to my company account and even one of the regular person/customer that always pay me with the reference as ""service charge"", i forgot to make mention of that customer as my top 3 client when asked, then the interviewer later asked me who is that Mr XYZ, at that point i included him as one of the top 3 client, but on this refusal note, that particular customer was not mentioned.

For the period i presented the bank statement, i have more than 1000 transactions which includes cash inflows and out flows. Some were cash and others transfers.

In that interview, i was not asked the method the clients used in paying for my services, and its ONLY bank transfers and card payment through card machines that reflects the name of the person/company that paid. So i could claim that they paid in cash or even cheque as cheques deposits doesn't show the name of the issuer. But in real sense, those clients made cash deposit payments.

the sign/name on the premises is also another business of mine, but not a limited company, its just a sole trading business. Please any idea how to clarify that point raised ?

Kindly advice.

You cannot submit additional evidence for your AR. But it does not look like you need to anyway.
You would only make your arguments in the AR as to why the CW's decision was wrong. You can provide documents to support those arguments.
Off hand, I think you have a strong case. Take each of the CWs comments and show why you think they have come to the wrong conclusion. You argument most probably is that the CW is wrong in using the limited information that you have submitted and that they should have requested you to provide additional documentation before they reached their conclusion. That argument will allow you to add documents to support your argument (these are the documents I would have submitted if I were asked).
I am not a lawyer and normally I would not suggest going to a lawyer, but this may be a case where it will be worth it.

I advise you to apply visa on behalf of your family and private life in the UK. You have 12 months left to complete 10 years. you will get easily cover the require period. if you apply AR and they refuse so have only option to go in JR. After refusing AR and you apply for Private Life than you will not able to claim 10 years continues residency. Think about it and ask the solicitor.

Unlikely a FLR private life application will drag for 12 months. HO very aware of this trick to buy time.

thanks alot mate. Any idea what to say about the different business name on the sign of my shop which suppose to be my business premises with my registered business name for the purpose of the application?
Similar logic.
There is no requirement that the business name should be displayed in a manner visible enough on Google maps. (remember though that your business name has to be displayed at your registered address)
So, the CW was incorrect in using Google maps as evidence. He/she should have visited the premises to confirm that the business name is displayed.
Take each rejection point and argue it as though it was the only one.

After refusing AR and you apply for Private Life than you will not able to claim 10 years continues residency. Think about it and ask the solicitor.
To the OP: I would be cautious about trying to beat the system. While I find many of the guidelines and requirements are far from perfect, the one thing they seem to have done well is to think through various loopholes.

No harm talking to a solicitor, but I suspect they will concur with what CR001 has said on this.

Take marcnath advice. I'm pretty sure you will get visa in AR. Use human rights as last option. I know it's not right to discuss in open forum but 10000's of people have used that route.
So only concentrate on AR at the moment.
During AR make your mind what you want to do to complete 10 years.
