ILR accelerated route

Post by maucha » Thu Aug 29, 2019 11:31 pm

Hey . All

I am in big trouble and i need urgent help please .

Story
I have Applied ILR on Accelerated route of tier 1 Entrepreneur showing 10 employees and investment . My ILR is refused

Refusal points is that Home office have given me 55 points and I am lacking 20 points from job creation they have accepted my 7 full time jobs but rejected three jobs 8th 9th and 10th

on 8th job -My question is by combining one part time employees one full time (apprentice ) four months and other book keeper for 17 months part time , I have mention on my application i am combining together to make one full time and they both are a book keeper same job. - Home office refuse saying my employee are part time and not making full time.

9th Job- home office refuse saying my employee is part time and therefore they are not considering it I have combine two full time not part time but on rejection letter saying they refuse because they have taken one employee part time

10th Job - Home office
I have combine two full time but they refuse stating one of the employee which i was combing with other employee to make one full time is part time so they are refusing

I am confuse it sound like home office does not consider part time to combine to make full time or you think any other reason If i hire one part time for 24 months will this make one full time ?

Please help and guide me

many thanks

The immigration rule and the guidance documents are very clear - all the refusals seem to be correct.

It is always about FT equivalent jobs, not employees. So, you can combine two (or more) part time employees to make up one FT EQUIVALENT. But one PT employee for 24 months is of course only doing ONE PT job.

You cannot combine two separate jobs unless each lasted for 12 months. You also cannot combine overlapping part time and full time jobs together because only 30 hours per week is counted. So the period where a part time job is overlapping with a full time job, the part time job portion will be ignored. I suggest to provide accurate dates of all the 3 jobs and the employees in those positions including start/end dates to get better advice

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Also when did you apply? March 2019- refusal points from HO

Job1 book keeper "the hours worked by three employee's on job1 only total one full time month. The hours work by employee 1 have been discounted as she was not paid National minimum wages for the 3 months which she worked. At the time of employee 1 employment she was 19 year old and was paid £4.01 . The national minimum wage of individual this age at the time of this employment was £5.30 and £5.55. employee 2 only works part time which mean we have only be able to calculate full time hours worked by employee 3.

My clarification: the 19 year old girl was an apprentice and hired as per apprentice minimum wage which was £3.40 and she was in the first year of her apprenticeship.

Job 2 Office manager
For jo 2 office manger you are combining employee's 1 and employee 2 however the hours worked by these 2 employee's only total 10 full time months this is because from nov 2017 to jan 2018 employee 2 worked part time.


Job 3 sales agent.

For job 3 sale agent you are combining employee, 2 and 3 however hours worked by these employee's only total 9 full months . This is because all months worked by employee 2 are part time hours and the hours worked by employee 3 in feb 2018 and oct 2018 is also part time hours.

Please reply all senior members shed light on my matter as I have got only 13 days left i got refusal letter yesterday

Thanks

I am going to assume your appearance argument is valid but still ...

In job one for employee 2, you falsely assumed that a PT employee work period can be counted as if it was a FT employee working for half that period. That is false. A PT employee hours must be combined with other PT employee to make up 30 hours a week.

In job two you clearly did not create 12 months of full time employment. That should be obvious

In job three, you reduced the pay for employee 3 (s/he didn't work FT 30 hours per week as the result) and therefore you do not end up with 12 months.

You cannot vary an application that has been decided. Variation is only makes sense for a pending undecided application. You can now apply for AR and if refused, you should apply for Tier 1E extension. You will remain an overstayer in the UK until your extension is again granted

Thanks but what about 39e rule ? is this not going to apply on this after section 3C and If I challenge HO on AR stating that rest of the employees were on FT as I just find out that here is some document mistake on my application should i re apply and mention I have done mistake on employees by writing PT when they have completed full time?

I don't want to be over stayer , if i get over stayer will this effect on my ILR when I will apply after two years ?

You currently are protected by Section 3C. If you apply for AR your section 3C continues until the AR is concluded.
If you choose to apply for a new application at any point, the Section 3C protection ends and you become an overstayer. The reason you can apply for a new application is in fact permitted under paragraph 39E. Additionally if your new application is then approved, your period of overstaying will be ignored for ILR

Job 1 and job 2 don’t qualify as per requirement. Your clarification won’t suffice.
Job 3 seems ok..
You are short two jobs..
Are any of the jobs still continuing?

I doubt the AR will be successful as per the above.

Bookkeeper is short 39 weeks
Office manager is short 12 weeks.
Do you think the jobs/employees can make these weeks up?

Did you figure why Job 3 doesn’t qualify.. were you not paying enough?

Divide the salary paid with minimum wage during the course of the year= hours per month
The working hours should be atleast 130/month..

1000/min wage=hrs

A FT job is full time is 30+ hours a week, hours worked more are ignored. So max 130 hours per month can be claimed for a full time employee. Remember that all calculations must be done on a weekly basis so it can be determined if a job was indeed full time or part time. You still believe you can count a single PT job as full time which you cannot.
