Application made on: 17/03/2016

This was my second application because my first application was refused, the link for my previous application thread is
http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tie ... l#p1310075
I subimitted a fresh application after 10 days of the Admin Review decision of the initial application which was with in 28 days and HO has disregarded the overstaying period while considering my fresh application.
I hope this will help in some way.

Congratulations Khan!!

How long did it take to receive your documents back after AR?

[Ali272]

Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

Does anybody know what would be the effect of refusal of first application on long residency? assuming first application is submitted well in advance of visa expiry and second application leads to a visa approval after AR.

Thanks

How long did it take to receive your documents back after AR?

Also: Did they retain your passport at that time?

Hi, congratulations! I would really appreciate if you could share some information as my case is going to be very similar to yours. My visa has been refused and I am applying for admin review in a couple of days time, which I think will be refused but that would allow me some time to gather all the documents for a fresh application. My question is did you wait for all your documents to be returned by the HO before you reapplied OR did you gather all the documents once again?

Thank you for sharing.

As long as a fresh application is made within 28 days of the overstaying period and if the fresh (second) application has been successful HO will disregard the overstaying period (as per immigration rules) in considering the ILR application.

Yes HO always keeps the passport in case of application refusal.

It is sad to know about your refusal. That's right AR decision is mostly negative. You will hopefully receive your documents a few days after the decision of your AR or they might send you your documents with the AR decision. I personally gathered all the documents again (with latest dates) even I had the previous documents but this should not be an issue if you use the previous ones.
You just have to concentrate on the refusal section for which HO could not award the points. Just send relevant documents as per requirements. All the best.

Thanks for your help. The problem is I didn't take a photocopy of some documents which I've sent to HO, for example the HMRC documents. I did not have a solicitor. But now I have hired a solicitor to apply for AR. If my AR gets refused, will they send the documents to my solicitor or to myself?

Ask your solicitor about which correspondence address will he be using for AR. What is the exact reason of your application refusal?
You will most probably receive your documents with the AR decision and then you can use the documents off your first application in your fresh application.
I think HMRC documents are only required for evidence to show business is subject to UK taxation and you can always order alternative copies from HMRC or get new copies of CT600's from your accountant (make sure you sign every required document). Same applies to annual accounts, employees IDs, Accountant Letter, Current appointment report from companies House (make sure this is up to date one) and arrange up to date maintenance funds statement. You will receive your Business bank statements otherwise have a meeting with your business bank manager and he will arrange all statements again for you. All the employment creation documents are easy to arrange again.

Hi Khan Friends

There were two reasons for refusal:

1) they said i provided them the current appointments report from 2012.

2) they said the fps i sent them are not acceptable

I sent them current appointments report from 2012 as well as 2016. they have failed to see the latest one that i sent. so that will most likely be corrected in admin review.

For fps, i only sent them the submission receipts with the long code. But i also sent them p11, p45 for one employee, p60s, p32, etc.

i never sent them business bank statements in the first application as i invested by share capital.

Your case is pretty simple, its just a mistake in case of FPS and misunderstanding in Current appointment report from Companies House.
Make sure you submit a fresh application within 28 days when your AR is concluded, you do not need to provide business bank statements if you have invested via share capital. Only send your latest Business Bank statements as an evidence that Business has a UK Bank Account.
Speak to your accountant about correct format of FPS, he should have these since he started your payroll, I think you have only sent the RTI submission receipts which is totally different than FPS.
You do not need to send the appointment report from Companies House dated 2012 as requirement is the very latest one. If you send two it will definitely create confusion.
In your fresh application keep most of your documents the same as you have provided earlier only change the ones HO have not accepted for awarding points. Just keep it simple and to the point, only provide the documents as required.
Before than you submit your application provide a check-list of the documents here on the forum and a few guys here (Like Zimba88 and others) are very helpful, they will guide you the best they can.
All the best, I hope you will have good news this time.

Hi Khan

Could you please share list of documents?

Thank you.

[infinitesmile]

Hi Khan Friends,
My questions is that, how much did you paid for the fresh application? Like in total for the first application and after rejection for second application. How much did it cost you in total?

With reference to 1) what did you put in your checklist in the application form. Did you list current appointment report 2016 as one of the documents submitted?

Yes, I listed it in the checklist but I did not specify 2012 or 2016. I just wrote "Current Appointments Report". However, I have clearly mentioned in my cover letter that I sent them both - the one from 2012 as well as 2016
