Well, after 9 years, you have not been keeping yourself up to date on local happenings.
One more year to go and once you get your ILR, you would not need to. But for now, the answer is yes

thankyou sir and with that if u can tell me how long do i need to pay it for ? i mean 1 year or more ?

[marcnath]

I have not had to do this myself but once you fill in the form online, it will give you the details and the amount to be paid. I understand it is for three years, but you will be get a refund once your extension is approved for any period beyond the extension granted.
I have no idea whether you will get a further refund if you get your ILR next year - I suspect you may be able to ask for it.

I don't know offhand but it is normally there very predominantly in the form itself.

ques 2 - in section F of dependent form it says : HAVE u ever had a HO reference number assigned to you ?

as its been a year she joined me so i was confused as obviously in her last application HO would have assigned her a reference number !! so if yes where can i find it or owise shall i mark NO ?

It would have been any of the official communication you received - acknowledgement of application, biometric, approval letter, etc. But if you don't have it just fill in Not available or something - this is not a critical one

- what is your investment evidence ?

[marcnath]

The requirement for current business engagement is clear
If you are self-employed when you apply, you must provide documentation to demonstrate that you are registered as self-employed with HM Revenue & Customs.
Your latest tax return should satisfy that if it was issued within the last three months and it states you are self-employed.

As mentioned, investment evidence is missing.

FPS is absolutely needed - other users seem to have used a software called Moneysoft to recreate the FPS.Talk to your new accountant.

- what is your investment evidence ?

investment evidence is entry in Tax returns by the accountant in 2 instalments 30k in 1st year and 20k in 3rd year . and ENGAGED IN BUSINESS - u said does not meet the requirement , then what shall i put in for that as the best to show engagement ? and RTI is sorted , i was mixing it with something else but just had a word with accountant and he alredy had signed up RTI fully.
and 1 question - Business Bank statements are not mandatory ennit ?

[mpking]

The requirement for current business engagement is clear
If you are self-employed when you apply, you must provide documentation to demonstrate that you are registered as self-employed with HM Revenue & Customs.
Your latest tax return should satisfy that if it was issued within the last three months and it states you are self-employed.

i am submitting tax return of 13-14, 14-15 and 15-16.
latest one has not been submitted yet, is that ok or shall i submit it asap and send it alongwith file which will then become an evidence of my self employment ?

and what is FPS ?
and what could be the investment evidence according to you in my case, other than an entry in audit accounts by the accountant clearly stating that this much investment has been made !! ??

[marcnath]

The requirements for investment are:
1) Unaudited accounts and an accountant’s certificate of confirmation
2) Business Premises in UK
3) UK Bank Account
4) UK Taxation

These are much easier to define in case of a limited company, but the requirements are still the same for self-employed. More details on each of these are in the guidance, but it is really the first one that is missing from your document list. The others should be ok.

You need something from HMRC within the last three months that shows you are self-employed still. Filing the latest return is one way of getting that, but if you have got a letter from HMRC asking you to submit your returns, that would work too.

FPS is the name of the RTI submission documents. You need to submit those

- boss in regards to Business premises : what document can i prove to demonstrate that ?
- and By UK bank account u mean - Business bank statement or letter from bank confirming its a business account and i am the authorised signatory is ENOUGH ?
- and by UK taxation , obviously TAX Returns for 3 years are enough ennit ?
- and sorry but what do you mean by Uuaudited accounts ? and are they different from Tax Returns ?
request - please reply soon as i have limited time. many thanks in advance ..

[marcnath]

- boss in regards to Business premises : what document can i prove to demonstrate that ?

The guideline specifies that - If you are self-employed, evidence of your registration with HM Revenue and Customs to show that the business is based in the UK,
So, you have that.

- and By UK bank account u mean - Business bank statement or letter from bank confirming its a business account and i am the authorised signatory is ENOUGH ?

Bank statement is sufficient

- and by UK taxation , obviously TAX Returns for 3 years are enough ennit ?

Yes, that is sufficient

- and sorry but what do you mean by Uuaudited accounts ? and are they different from Tax Returns ?
request - please reply soon as i have limited time. many thanks in advance ..

I am not absolutely sure about this, but I think Tax returns are not sufficient. And anyway you need a compilation report from your accountant. Not sure if the accountant provides that for your tax return.

Ask your accountant - they should be able to generate an accounts for your self-employed business

ok i ll talk to my accountant about the compilation report and ll get it for sure ..
and about UK Banking : tell me some alternative for bank statement as i don't want to provide that. what else other than business bank statement can I give to cover this clause ??

[marcnath]

There are alternatives to the business statements set out in the guidelines. I don't have it in front of me but it was a letter from the bank if I remember right.
