Set(O) question - Section 5.3, 6.2

I'm applying for ILR using the Set (O) form - HSMP+Tier 1, covered by the Judicial Review. I'm the sole director of my company and take a small tax efficient salary and some dividends once a year. I've left a lot of my earnings in the company as retained earnings - which I know should not be a problem.

In section 5.3 of the Set(O) form, I'm not sure what amount to enter for the 'What's your pay each month...' - do I enter in only my average monthly salary or average salary + dividend (divided by 12), or my (company's) billing rate? I'm tempted to leave it blank and explain at the PEO.

I've traveled quite a bit for business and have letters to cover the business trips. Also have some (very little) personal travel. In section 6.2 of the form where it asks to list the absences from the UK, do I reference the company letter or list the personal trips only (which will fit in the section) or list the first few business trips with a statement continued on the company letter?

Thanks, all.

I doubt people at PEO would help in completing section SET(O)5.3; maybe you can share your experience?

I am contemplating as well what to put in this section as I am director of limited company and seeking a new contract; also I do not have money stacked up in business account. Thus, while I am seeking work I do not get paid at all. Any advice much appreciated.

Did you notice that the post was made a year ago? And that the OP is/was a HSMP JR migrant?
