Agreed with Zain no need to provide any english language certificate for the T1E extension.

can't see any changes for extension applicants other then now they ask company bank statement with director's loan agreement to show the transactions.

Why don't you read the policy guidance. It will save a lot of time. EmployeeS salaries count as investment otherwise you can't invest that much money. Hats off for you accountant though. You found a brilliant star from whole UK. :) No Momi, FKS21177 is right. This visa rules are very complicated an...

I got visa in 2013 and as far as I remember there were loads of applicants who got it before me. Just wondering where are all they gone? are they not applying for extension.

Its a long time since we saw any failure or success story for extension applicant here in this forum.

I am purchasing it from open market and solely for office use.

the problem is if I purchase it on my(Director) name can I include it in company accounts.

Regards,
Ahmed

is this question that complex that nobody has a basic opinion about this.

If I purchase a shop on my (Director) name and register my company there, does it count as an investment?

and what if somebody is hired as an employee after me (as a director) and then become the director. does he count as an employee?

I joined the existing business as a director and before me there were one director but he was just taking the dividend and not on company payroll after I joined the business I enrolled him on payroll and he is director as well.

My question is can his employment be considered as one job?

@10020132 sorry for bad math and yes what you are saying is exactly what I understand from the guidance. regarding this line in your last comment the thing that confused me from guidance was that number of hours of part time workers even if they add up to more than 30 per week it will still be count...

I have an employee who worked for me 20 hours per week for almost 24 months. Will that count as one full time employee? or does it need to be 30 hours atleast as guidance does not elaborate on part time employees but just full time employees Yes it can count as one job if you got visa after april 2...

HI, just reading the tier1 guidance and application form for extension. in guidance they said: A letter from the UKregulated bank, on its headed paper, confirming that the company has a bank account and you are a signatory of that account. ref: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/at...

does it count as 1 job?

I personally think no by the way but just need a second opinion.

In my understanding yes you need to produce at least 3120 hours of employment. In your case you can do this with one employ by hiring him/her for two years. Hope this helps.

Where did you read this Ahmed25? Well this is my understanding from this point may be I am wrong. Further extensions and ILR applications If the applicant‘s last grant of leave before the current grant was as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) (for instance, they are applying for a second extension):  they d...

By the way, does anyone know if, after extension, the applicant must fulfill the job creation criteria once again if a two-year extension is granted? The two job you have created during your initial leave has to be continued during the extension period as well otherwise you have to create two more ...

I employed Romanian people recently hope this will complete the requirement.

i think you should stick with the guidance. According to guidance if you got your visa before april 2014 you can employee same person for 24 months with minimum 30 hours per week and if you got it after april 2014 then you have to employee minimum 2 person and one employee will count as one job even...

Had an interview today. For those who've been sent emails for an interview.. Pls don't be alarmed.. All they wanna know if u'd submitted any English proficiency certificates.. N if the awarding body of that certificate was ETS Toeic.. If yes the interview proceeds further.. Otherwise its over.. Plu...

hi, got a email for the same interview. got Ti(E) visa in mar 2013. attended toeic in feb 2012 and yes i did submit the Toeic for visa. but what does that mean all those used Toeic are culprit? and TBH its more then 3 years since I appear in that test and now I don't even remember the test format et...

Yes soma you are right. It is clearly mentioned over ukba website that you need to spend 5 years in any working visa category like you mentioned above to meet the continuous resident requirement for ILR.

Someone has given you wrong information. There is no such condition of 3 months. Whenever someone gives you this sort of information, always ask for reference.You are allowed 6 months outside UK in one year. Now it is up to you whether you take few short breaks or stay 6 months in one single trip. ...

Nope as far as I remember from the policy guide, the rule is for 6 months outside UK in a year. Yes you are right but my question is can I take those 6 months leave in a single trip? Like in my situation I left UK on 23 september 2013 and I plan to come back in february 2014 so my stay is not longe...

Just wanted to confirm you guys that is it ok to spend around 5 months outside uk in a single trip on this visa? In my opinion there is nothing wrong with it as far as I am not breaching any other rule. Please comments. Thanks.

For me and what I understand from Hammad comments. You just need to put the money in you company account to meet the 200k investment requirement. Because once the money submitted in to the company account you cannot take it out in a normal way you have to pay tax etc.
