Hi everyone,
Thank you so so much for helping us all in this process. I have some doubts on what kind of proof of living I have to provide being a LTD director/self employed and if my peculiar story (see below) will affect my application
I am an Italian citizen.
I have lived in the U.K. continuously from October 2007 to December 2016.
I moved abroad in Jan 2017 and have returned to the U.K. permanently since July 2018.
When I sent my application under the E.U. Settlement Scheme in May 2019, I was not aware that I could have gotten already the settlement status based on Historic Residence, as I thought that if I was away for more than one year, I was going to have to apply for Pre-Settle. So, I applied for Pre-Settle Status.
Last year, I discovered that I could have already gotten the settlement status, so I proved that I hadn’t been outside the U.K. for longer than five years between 2008 and 2016, and on 19/10/22, I applied.
On the 23/01/23, I was granted the Settlement status.
In the last five years, I travelled 380 days.
I have owned my LTD company since 2016 and am the only employee. What kind of proof of living do I have to provide? I only have P60 for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2023, as my accountant still needs to sign me in for PAYE for 2022.
I don’t have access to Council Tax bills as I always shared houses or lived in studio flats where bills were included in the total rent.
Thank you so much
Elena
