Tier 1 Entreprenuer to ILR - requirements help
Posted: Sun Jun 18, 2017 5:24 pm
Hi all
I would soon be sending my ILR application via Tier 1 Entreprenuer 200K 5 years route.
I would like advise in regards to Para 245DF(f) and 245DF(g). Should I submit any evidence for these two points with my application? The guidance and the form do not indicate any evidence to be submitted but my past experience with UKVI worries me.
Same happened with my wife's dependant visa application. The guidance and the form do not present the full picture of the immigration rules. Her application was refused under para 319C (d) & (e) (which was later accepted in fresh application and loads of evidence documents). I really want my ILR application to be perfect in the first place.
I have copied and pasted the relevant paragraphs below for ease of reference. If evidence is to be submitted I would appreciate if you can give examples below the relevant points.
Any advice and suggestions really appreciated.
Regards

(iii) the credibility of the financial accounts of the business or businesses;
(iv) the credibility of the applicant’s business activity in the UK, including when he had leave as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) Migrant;
(v) the credibility of the job creation for which the applicant is claiming points in Table 6 of Appendix A;
(vii) if the nature of the business requires mandatory accreditation, registration and/or insurance, whether that accreditation, registration and/or insurance has been obtained; and
(viii) any other relevant information.
