After this weeks events we've decided to spend some of our savings on obtaining dual British-Danish Citizenship for my wife. Step 1 I believe is a PR card.
Been reading for the last 8 hours straight; and figured out that our document retention is poor
Q: Because we're fortunate to have CSI I think we can evidence self sufficiency throughout - does that negate the need to show employment? Or does it "infil" around the periods of employment we can evidence?
Q: If we struggle with P60s, can I get/use a letter of employment history from the tax office?
Background
- - Danish citizen has been living in the UK for 8 years
- Married to a UK Citizen
- Plenty of paperwork to show her UK residency over the last 5 years
- She's been included on a private healthcare policy throughout
- We've held joint back accounts throughout with regular income
- She's had an NI number throughout
- She's been on the electoral role throughout
But
- She has been employed on and off - not continuously, and with different employers. Haven't retained P60s. One is a big enough firm so trying to track down some
- She's had fair bit of time unemployed whilst raising our kids
- She has a period of maternity, not employed, but taking SMP - not sure if this counts
- In the last 12 months she has been self employed. No accountant. Think we have "some" of the SE documents asked for. Have read on here difficulty people have had with SE evidence.
