They wanted evidence of some specific business contracts I said I had.
They also wanted 2 years business bank statements to confirm my turnover
Evidence of some purchases I claimed I made- invoices and bank statements to confirm
Evidence from my bank statements that I paid my employees

[Ams2013]

Thank you for your prompt response.

It is quite unusual as interview is normally the last stage of case assessment and after the interview they don't ask any further evidence.

During your interview did they ask questions about the information you supplied on for 06 Oct i.e business contracts , how you pay Employees , Suppliers/Purchases details and did they mentioned you they will be asking in writing the evidence to support your answers ?

Your response in above is appreciated.

The information they requested for on 06 Oct 2016 was naturally based on my responses during my interview.

I guess they simply wanted further information to clarify the points I raised.

I didn't submit my bank account statements in Feb 2016 as I simply used a letter from my bank confirming I had a business bank account.

- If the money is transferred to business account in more than 5-6 different transactions . What date can we put while filling the application, for
table 3b1 : "Date of investment in the format dd/mm/yy " ?

- And if we prepare 'register of members ' , does this needed to be done on Company's Letter Head ?

I submitted my register of members but it wasn't on my letterheaded paper.

Whenever I issued new shares I updated my company's records on Companies House. I also printed new share certificates

Thank you y

I put all the dates.

When I registered my company some years ago the agent who helped me with the registration gave me a booklet that contained samples of minutes of meetings, share certificates, registers of debentures, members etc. That's what I submitted. I haven't received my documents back from HO so I dont have a copy or sample. But I believe you can get a sample online.
