Application of FLRM is on hold- help required

[shreyaocg]

Hello all,

On 20th Dec my wife applied for FLRM , she met all the requirement except finance threshold of £18600 as the case worker said to us.
she asked us to send additional documents from my wife employer to ukba.

I am a self employed person and run a consultancy firm . On 19th Dec 2012 I applied for ILR and got approved it on the basis of my salary and dividends from my limited company.

Same documents i submitted for my wife's FLRM , but case worker didn't accept my salary, dividends and current company account.
She said she need Corporation tax return for company account which is not possible till 31st Jan because CT will be paid once the financial year end.

My wife is in a job and since May 2012 and earning around £22000 annually . we submitted her contract with company, pay slips and bank account where salary is being deposited.

Case worker said she can be qualified on the basis of her salary but need to submit a letter from employer confirming her job and annual salary. since its holiday season so she will get it when office will resume.

my main question is why they didn't accept my salary, company accounts and dividends.
Secondly in last financial year i draw a salty of £7000 and dividends of £5000. Should it work?
Thirdly since my wife has been employed for more than 6 months hence her current salary will work to fulfill the income criteria?

I have read the financial criteria of FLR-M but it seems confusing in some points when people are self employed.

Please suggest me your view what further action should we take.

I don't know why they did not accept your income as I can't see your paperwork. However, the CW said your wife's income is fine when you have provided the letter. So, I don't know what you are worried about. Get the letter and send it.

Thanks for your concern.

We will do the same as advised, but I am worried why they didn't accept my documents for current financial year. If she was looking for the CT then I asked her to use my current salary which was around £6500. she said your salary must be for continuous period of 12 months. so ridiculous answer.....i said what if someone get redounded? she said its your own pvt company so why it could be like this......

I have spoken to my accountant , he said its so surprising she didn't accept any of your documents and asking for CT of current year which is not possible till 31st January.

That's because CWs are not accountants themselves and if the material provided is not absolutely clear (in their estimation) they will defer a decision until it has been scrutinised and they are not prepared to do that detailed examination in front of you while you wait.
