Naturalisation: How to Provide Proof for New Self-Employment/Director Status Without Tax Returns?
Posted: Wed Dec 11, 2024 9:36 am
Hi everyone,
I’m completing my naturalisation application and need clarification regarding the employment documentation requirements.
In the employment details section of the form, I’ve ticked multiple options, as I fall under different categories:
* I’m currently employed by Company ABC, where I receive my regular salary.
* I’m also a director of my own company, which was established just a few months ago.
The checklist mentions providing the most recent tax year account statement and corresponding HMRC tax return as proof of self-employment. However, since my company is new, I don’t yet have a tax return or account statement for it.
Given this situation:
1. Should I primarily provide documentation for my employment with Company ABC, such as payslips and employment verification, even though the checklist is asking for a tax year statement and HMRC tax return to prove self-employment?
2. Is there additional documentation I need to provide to address my status as a director, even if the company is too new to have generated tax returns?
3. Or shall I uncheck Self-employed option? I am a director but do not draw salary from that company and leave Employee and Direct Option Ticked?
I want to ensure I’m submitting the correct documents to avoid delays. Any advice or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
