Adequate maintenance

[smi]

Hi, I am Applying for an extention for my FLR M visa. Here I haven’t been asked for employer details is this normal? I was asked on the first application 2.5 years ago. It has asked me for a letter from my employer to show my salary. I actually now work for my own Limited company. How would I complete the employer letter evidence for this?

Hi, I am applying for an extension of FLP M

I am the director of my limited company. In my last Tax return all profits stayed in the business account. I didn’t not withdraw wages. My wife was employed at this time. Since this return I have been paying myself every month. Next tax return is due next month and visa this month. How do I show I am the director on this form as I only get an employed option and what documents will I need? My wife also receives PIP.

Hi, me and my husband work for his limited company. He is the director and I am the employee.

Can we go down the adequate maintenance route as I receive a qualifying benefit even though the money is coming from a limited company? Also, is the sponsors and applicants money counted together? Or just the sponsors

Just to clarify, is it the sponsor or the applicant who receives the qualifying benefit?

Hi, thank you for this answer. As I am employed by his limited company and he is the director. When working out adequate maintenance do we use our last payslips or do we use his income from the last tax year?
