• Dividends
• Business Accounts
11. whether the earnings claimed appear to have been eamed through genuine employment, rather than being borrowed, gifted, or. otherwise shown in your financial transactions or records without being earned; And
111. whether the business from which the earnings are claimed can be shown to exist and be lawfully and genuinely trading;
You ai:e claiming to have earned a total admissible income of £38,412.27 over the period 1
2015 to 2016 from a combination of self employed earnings from:
Ltd in the UK, and salaried earnings from- - : UK You have
- .
claimed 20 points for previous earnings under Appendix A of the Inuµigration Rules on the basis
of your earnings as detailed below.
On 24 Mar h 2017 you attended an interview in relation to your Tier 1 General ILR application.
Salaried employment with :
You have claimed e.arnings o £16,212.27 from your salaried employment witn
for the period from I - 2015 to : l 2016. The payments detailed by each of the payslips are corroborated by the Santander bank statements you have provided in support of your application. •.
During the interview you confirmed that your role in your salaried position for l
. was a 'front line technical support analyst' which involved taking calls 'from end
users to solve IT problems'. You also confirmed that you worked 35 hours per week for this employment from Monday to Friday.
Self employed earnings from
You have claimed points on the basis of £22,200 earnings in the form of Dividends from your self employed business As evidence of your earnings you have provided invoices, dividends, company accounts and bank statements.
You confirmed in your interview that the nature of your business is 'domestic and software development' and that you 'provide the application for the clients like generating reports from the web based application. And the coding for the application'.
You confirmed that the hours of work for your self employment was '30 hours per week it depends on the work. I work on weekends and in the evenings after the work'.
Earnings/Hours worked
With reference to questions 4 and 5 of the interview transcript you were asked the following:
Q4: How many hours a week do you work, and on what days?
A: For] I work 35 hours per week Monday to Friday
I work 30 hours per week it depends on the work I work on weekends and in the evenings after the work.
QS: In your application you are claiming earnings from self employment and employed work. How do you manage your time between your self employment and employed work?
A: I use a day planner. Once I have finished the work from - : my IT work is home based I log in from home I work evenings and weekends.
You were also_ asked the following question:
QS: Can you confirm the address where your business is registered?
A:
Q9: Your business address on your invoice shows you are operating from Glasgow but your residential address shows you are based in Belfast - how can you operate your business from Glasgow living in Belfast? How long does it take you _to get to Glasgow?
A: I have got a home in Glasgow. Currently I am living in Belfast but my wife lives in Glasgow in the Flat. It takes 45 minutes by Flight. The whole journey takes 1 and half hours. I do on line check in. I came to Belfast for work I work for :
Q10: Where do you physically carry out consultations - i.e. do you meet with clients at their premises?
A: No, I meet them through Skype, it is quicker and faster_
From the payslips yoµ have provided as evi ence of your salaried income, the rate of pay is £7.50 per hour which would equate to a daily rate of £52.50 per day The hours worked are approximately 35 hours per week with overtime showing for some weeks.
From the invoices you have provided as evidence•of your self employed earnings, the rate of pay is £200 per day. '
It is notable that the time spent travelling between your homes in Belfast and Glasgow would have an effect on the hours which you were available to work, and it therefore does not seem plausible that you were able to travel and also work for 65 hours•per week for both employed and self employed jobs. In addition we find it questionable that you would choose to work in a salaried position in ,vhich you earn £7.50 per hour/£52.50 per day in Belfast whilst your wife resides in Glasgow, when you claim that you are able to earn £200 per day as self employed working from home. This raises doubt regarding the earnings you have claimed from self employment.
Furthermore, it is also noted that the financial costs of running two homes plus the costs of flying.between Glasgow and Belfast would be quite substanti , which further adds weight to our concerns as stated above.
Client
You have provided 14 invoices for your clien, t _
£29,000. During your interview you confirmed that ' and the nature of their business is 'IT development'.
T.td showing a total sales of
. Ltd is your only client
A search of the internet using the name and address or _ Ltd does not show a website. C mpanies House shows the nature of the business is 'Business and domestic software development'.
We have concerns regarding the payments from your clien•t
_ f:f Solutions and the invoices
and the bank statements provided. The dates which you have invoiced your client are the same as the dates on which your client paid the amounts owed into your bank account. It does not seem plausible for a business to invoice a client and receive payment on the same day.
- In addition it is noted that your client's business is IT related and yet does not have a website which rai es further doubts.•regarding if the earnings you have claimed.
Advertising
During the interview you were questioned about how you advertised your business and fourid your clients as follows:
Q11: How do you attract clients to your business?
A: Through recruitment agency, I self market, I approach them and send my business profile to them.
Q15: How did your clients know about your business?
A: Through the Agency 's
Your response only provides basic information which is of concern as we would expect the owner of a business to be able to divulge more detailed information regarding how a client secured the services of their business.
Bank Statements
During the interview you were questioned about transactions showing on your bank accounts as follows:
Q23: Your bank statement for your business shows that as soon as you are paid by '
Solutions you instantly pay yourself Dividend - why is this and why do you not wait to the end of each month before making your Dividend payments?
A: I never observe this whenever there is a need I transfer money to my bank account. I have
commitments to my family in India and UK
Q25: The Santander bank statement provided shows money being credited to your account and shortly transactions debited from your account totalling the amount that was originally paid in. Can you explain why you this is?
A: I have commitments to my family in India and I have some debit in India I need to clear I send them money
Q26: Your account shows on 2015 you received a payment of £2000 from WU -can you tell me who this is and what the payment was for?
A: It is Western Union, My relative in India my cousin, He borrowed a money from me and he returned back the money to me he returned it via Western Union
Your responses at interview and the information provided in the bank statements further adds to our existing doubts about whether the monies shown on your bank statements has been earned through genuine employment.
iv. verification of your previous earnings claims with de.clarations made to other Government Departments, including declarations made in respect of earnings claimed by you in previous applications;
You submitted a Tier 1 (General) application on 2011 and claimed total earnings of
.£38,303.56 of which £17,080.32 was salaried employment and £21,230 was self employed earnings.You submitted a Tier 1 (General) extension application on : 2013 .and claimed total earnings of £37,013.85 of which £18,833.63 was salaried and £18,182.23 was from dividends from self employment.
The Secretary of State has conducted further enq nes with HM Revenue and Customs to establish self-employed earnings and dividend payments which had been declared to HM Revenue and Customs. HM Revenue and Customs records show the following information:
Tax Year
Total earnings Self Employed:
Net Profit/Dividends
2009/10 {12,330
2010/11 {38,234 {19884 Net Profit
2011/12 [20,102 [1550 Net Profit
2012/13 [41,689 [16364 Dividends
2013/14 [19,094 [900 Dividends
We have considered the evidence you have provided and yo':1r responses at interview with the above HMRC information,. Whilst we are satisfied that there are no discrepancies of amounts
claimed on previous applications and the amounts declared to HMRC, we do have concerns regarding fluctuating earnings in the above tax years.
HRMC records show a significantly lower amouht of earnings during the years in between applications. During the interview you were asked to provide an explanation why earnings were
' greater during the periods claimed for previous applications and you replied 'IT business fluctuates, there was no work during that period I never observed ,that it was different'.
Your reasons for the differences in earnings are noted. However due to our existing concerns regarding earnings claimed in your current application, it does not seem credible that the fluctuations in IT business which you state caused your self employed earnings to be higher in the tax years above coincided with the periods claimed in your previous applications.
For the•reasons outlined above, the Secretary of State on balance of probabilities is not satisfied that the self employed earnings you have claimed in your Tier 1 (General) application are• genume.
Paragraph 7 to 34 of Appendix A of the Immigration Rules Previous Earnings
You have claimed 20 points for previous earnings. However, as explained above we are not
satisfied the your self employed earnings are genuine. As your salaried earnings only total
£16,212.27 no points have been awarded for Previous Earnings. UK Experience
As O points have been awarded for Previous Earnings, we have therefore been unable to award points for UK Experience.
Age
20 have been awarded as claimed in your application. Qualifications
35 points have been awarded as claimed in your application.
Therefore, you have been awarded in total 55 points under Paragraph 7 to 34 of Appendix A of the Immigration Rules.
Therefore you do not satisfy the requirements of the Immigration Rules and it has been decided to refuse your application for Leave to Remain as a Tier 1 (General) migrant under paragraph 245CD of the Immigration Rules as you do not meet the requirements at paragraph 245CD(g) under paragraph 19(i) & 19(j) on Appendix A.
Right to verify
Please note, on this occasion we have not carried out full verification checks to ensure the authenticity of the documents you submitted or the statements that you have made on your application form, as your application falls for refusal on other grounds as outlined above.
However, the Home Office reserves the right in future to request independent third pa.rty verification to check the authenticity of any piece of supporting documentation that you provided with this application, or will provide in any future application or any statements that you have made or will make in connection with this cir any future application.
