Tier 1 Ent 50k to ILR approved with motoring offense Guys just wanted to thank you all who have been so helpful in this journey I got my ILR
I was on tier 1 Ent 50 k route. My five year completed in OCT/17
Hope this info is helpfull for you guys
Applied for ILR 27 days before completing 5 years
Time line
Application sent 29/Oct /17
Biometric done 06 Nov/17
Received all the document and ILR-BRP card, all received on the same date on 03 Jan/18
Total Processing time was less than 2 months after biometric including Christmas holidays
I kept my file really simple and very well organized with all the divider and index etc. Only sent what they asked for in guidance nothing more nothing less, I only sent few extra docs in job creation section just to avoid any confusion. I didn't sent the bank statement neither company accounts nor invoices. I saw on this forum that lot of people sent lot of these documents but I did not bother as they did not ask for these docs.
I had a motoring offence CU10 (defective tyres) for which I had to go to court and was given £250 fine and 3 points and it was within 24 month but I guess I got away with it as I did not have any criminal record so I sent DBS and also certificate from police national computer confirming that I do not have any criminal record to make sure caseworker should not get confused with the offence, but to be on safer side I marked yes in criminal records section.Did not wanted to be seen as deception in case of any confusion(you never know what happens in home office)
Employees
I had 2 full-time employees for 53 weeks exactly and 1 employee of 8months after an extension was granted I got rid of all 3 employees on 53rd week after extension and outsource all the work to contractors and self-employed people to keep the cost low.I did not have any employees on my company payroll for last approx. 1 year before the ILR application
