The complete situation with my husband is he started his job on 7 nov 2013 with a salary of 18900 and just after we applied for the visa his hours got cut down and he also became self employed when this happened (may 2013)
because his hours were reduced he was only getting paid 350 or 450 a month until nov 2013 which had a rise to 650. but in may he started self employment from which, if put together with the employement salary is enough over the year to be 18900. the problem is that from the self employment he used to get cash which was not all banked on a regular basis, what i would like to know is whats the procedure to re apply maybe with this situation or if we can send it off for the review explaing his situation to them do you guys reckon it would help?
1: you have provided employment letter and payslips from ........................ the letter states that your sponsor has been employed with them since 7 nov 2013.<this is correct
2: checks carried out with hmrc in th uk have revealed that they have no record of this employment having been declared to them.<the employment letter from the employer which is on headed paper states the name of the company thats registered with HMRC and clearly shows that they are trading under a different name. so it says that my husband is employed by xyz company that is trading as zzz (zzz is the name on the payslips and bank statements showing that thats where the salary has come from)
3:for tax year 2013_14 hmrc records show an income of 7875 only with an employer called ........... (this is the same company it was also mentioned in employer letter) . jobseeker allowance was your sponsor's only other income during this year.<jobseeker alowance was only for 2 weeks in early 2013 as i said in another post and the income was only 7875 (5 months) because he only started his job in nov and if you add 1575 his monthly salary to 7875 its 9450 which is his 6 months worth of salary and in a year its 18900
4: no employment with ............... is recorded.( is the same as point 2 it clearly shows the names of the company in the emloyment letter) maybe the eco left his reading glasses at home that day)
5: i also note that four of the claimed monthly pay deposits from your sponsor's employer were made within a three week period.(there was cash flow issue with the company which was explained by employer in letter)
6: for tax year 2014-15 hmrc records show that employment with this employer hasd continued at a rate well below income threshold of rules. < this is the only point that i think will create a problem because it is right the payments were below the threshold but he was earning money from self employment which is not declared to the HMRC until the end of the tax year.
these are the reasons for refusal.
the main thing i would like your help with is deciding if its worth doing the review thing because im not even aware of what it is exactly and how long it takes, but would i be able to prove to them that there was self emloyment from say invoices to customers? because there wasnt much of the cash going into the bank account.
) for your prompt response. Networkers , I applied sometime near you , does that mean i may expect an answer this month probably ? if it is longer , does that mean application is likely to be refused?
