Dear gurus,
I am soon due to apply for ILR - SET (M) under the old family route (I applied for my spouse visa before 9 july 2012 and got it for 2 years). So I am using their "2 year route for settlement" as a spouse of a British husband.
It is not quite clear for me what evidence I should use to prove my income. I am employed as a company director, but the company is not my own, I only receive salaried income (I have payslips, pay NI and everything else as a normal employee).
The company is owned by 2 shareholders (through another company), one of them is my close relative.
According to the new rules (Appendix FM and FM-SE) in this case I would have to provide all the company's documents in addition to my payslips and bank statements (the whole lot, some of it I do not have because I do my own accounts). But since I am applying under the old rules, these Appendices are not relevant. And I cannot quite find what is relevant for me.
I was planning to provide a letter from my employers (in my case the shareholders) about the terms of my employment, my and my husband's payslips and personal bank statements and P60s. But then I discovered these new requirements and the definition of a 'specified limited company'. Before reading that I considered myself an employee and the previous visa FLR(M) was granted without any company's tax returns, accountant's letters etc, just payslips and bank statements.
I am so confused, please, any advice would be appreciated.
