[roniksoni]

hello everyone.
I have received the refusal letter few days ago on the basis of I didn't have enough money in my account to claim my points and second I didn't attach the corporation registration letter.
1- I had 42k in my personal account and I did transfer 10k to my business account but they didn't consider 10k n didn't gave me points. Plus they have mentioned that they haven't checked all other documents as well.
Moreover, I got chance of appeal or re apply for the application.

I need expert advice about this.

Please help me !!!

[roniksoni]

Shall I go for appeal or reapply with amendments ?

[S.Danik]

Did u tranfer 10k funds to business account before ypu apply or you transfered latter after you applied( if you yes how many days after you have transfered money from peronal account to business account.
2- in Business accout do you have still 10k..or have you paid some business bills or expenses.

[roniksoni]

I have transferred before I applied and I still have that 10k in my business account.
What would you suggest me to do either reapply or appeal ?

You should appeal if you had the money in your account before you applied. I have observed that the T1 application is tricky and one has to cater to all TYPES/KINDS of case workers in order to increase the probability of success. There are dumb ones and there are nasty ones, Some full of energy to find fault even when there is none and the one's ridden with sloth to delve deep .............

You should have only provided the statement starting when there was £50k in your account. However we can't go back in the past. You should appeal the decision. Good luck and be happy !

Hi

Normally, if your some of the fund already transferred for business (meant you have started investment), and in this circumstances, HO expects unaudited account of you business and proof of investment method that you've chosen (director loan/share), extra paperworks. I reckon that's why they didn't counted that on.

Anyways, let bygones be bygones, may be you can win the appeal on the basis of evidential flexibility, if you had attached bank statement of you business banking [that holding remaining share of your fund] in your application; talk to your solicitor.

Good Luck.

I am planning to apply 200k route visa in few months from india.
I have few questions if someone can advice me or help me.
I have lived in Uk for 7 years cane back 2 years ago n my last application was 50k route as consultancy firm which was with court n I had return to india.
Now I am gonna show some other business which electronic store so does it make any difference ?

And my other queries are as below
First so I have to keep 200k for 3 months or it doesn’t matter.

Second is it advisable to prepare business plan with some professional

And last is it good to hire solicitor to arrange documents or it doesn’t matter as I have applied 50k route when I was in uk.


Please reply me with appropriate answers.

Thanks.

Dear Piercebody,
Thanks for your valuable comments and guidance. Lets hope for the best and hope your application is successful. How did you get a DIT endorsement? Will they give any credibility to my plan for Bookkeeping business?

BPR.

I have contacted UK DIT Team (googled various sections) no response at all. Then contacted my local British embassy and they have asked me to come for an interview. I hope before the interview happen ( I was asked to send my business plan) they might have got some information about our company and activities. After the interview they escalated/refered my case to the UK DIT team. UK DIT Team assigned a Project Manager and after so may email communications the PM got trust and escalated to her management and issued the letter.

So I recommend you to contact the DIT team of your near british embassy who can make this happen. Initiailly DIT Team (local) refused to process this but I have convinced them with my presentation and focus in the business. Usually it is an extra burden for them as they are already busy with the fortune companies and and working with Top companies. They told me usually all of the companies they support will apply only Sole Representative Visa ( almost similar to Tier 1 but can work with only one company). Try your best in all the available ways and to me the possibliliy to get this endorrsement/support letter is mainly based on the mind set of the regional head as it is not one of their regular task. ( Whether they want to help/escalate or ignore with any reason). All the best and sorry for my long reply Thanks.

No it does not matter

And my other queries are as below

Have you read the guidance ? The three month requirement is very clear if you are using your own funds.

Second is it advisable to prepare business plan with some professional

There is no requirement that it should be prepared by a professional (I am not even sure what a professional would be for this). But it is up to you.

And last is it good to hire solicitor to arrange documents or it doesn’t matter as I have applied 50k route when I was in uk.

The previous application has no impact on that

Hello moderator and guys.

I need the sample of bank letter to show the fund has been banks for 90 days continuously.

Also is it okey if I have the fund in the bank in india?
I have checked the name of the bank which is in the list of financial institutions approved from home office.


Moreover,
I m quite sure but just wanted to confirm
Is it okey to have the balance and maintainance fund in the same account ?


At last ,
I have kept the balance since a month now.
And if the rate goes up n if my balance hit below 200K.

Will there be a chances of refusals ??

There is a template in the guidance. And that together with Bank statements for three months should meet the requirement

Yes

Yes

Yes, it has to be 200K based on the OANDA exchange rate on the date of application

Yes you have to pay the IHS fee, £200 per year so for a 3 year visa it is £600 per applicant.

IHS fees likely increasing in December.

[roniksoni]

Is the IHS fees refundable ?
And can I pay a day or 2 days in advance before I make the application as I am going to apply from india.

IHS is only refundable if your application is refused.

You must pay IHS before submitting your application.

[roniksoni]

Three months of balance completing on first week of December.

So I m almost ready for it.
Need bit more help if some1 can advice me.

1- I am applying with my spouse, her address on passport is his dad’s so does it make any difference as long we have the marrige certificate ?

2- I have all the fund in one account, including maintainer fund and investment fund.
I hope there won’t be any issue from it.

3- is it okey if I pay IHS fees from uk from my friend account ?
Or do I have to pay from india ?

Same thing for application fees **

4- I applied back in 2014 for the same catogory and was refused (50k route)
But this time I am going to apply with different business. (200k route)

Earlier it was consultancy firm and now I am going to do retail business with work experience in uk and in india.

5- information about police clearance certificate **
In india passport has been given after police verification so I think I will not need to produce any police clearance certificate which I didn’t have on last entry clearance too.

6- I need sample of bank letter

7- I have received the loan from my wife of some amount.
So, do I need to make any agreement for Lon regarding that ?


please advice me on above questions.

Thanks.
