Hi,
I need an advice if anyone can suggest me what to do...
In july 2010 i got my first tier 1 visa for 2 years and then in 2012, i got 3 years extension. I need 35k income.
My ILR is due in later half of this year (2015), and i shall be able to prove £35k earning (100%) through salary income, (for my intended claim period) which is --> (Oct14-Sep14).
At the time of extension, (July 2012), i was able to get 3 years extension by showing £35k (around 35% by salary employment and 65% through self employment, as i was able to get few small working projects during those days). Half of the self employment was filed during tax year of 2011-12 (on 31jan2013), and remaining i filed last year (31-jan-14). in short what so ever the income i showed at the time of my extension, i paid the full tax of 35k.
During the tax year (2013-14) [which is April13 to Mar14], which is to be filed on 31-jan-2015 , my income fall , far below than 35k, because first i lost my job, and then it wasnt a good year to get projects through self employment, in total i earned around 15k only, 98% of this amount is employed salary.
To make it a bit simpler, at the time of applying for ILR, can this bad year (2013-14) with income around 15k (when i need to threshold of 35k) can effect my ILR case?
Can Home Office make any troubles as to why your income fall in between your extension and ILR (3rd and 4th year of your stay)
OR
35k is ONLY to be proved during last 12 month (1), before extension (2) before ilr. and they are not bothered if salary fall during any middle years.
Just to mention, 15 months before my Tier 1 visa is to expire, i got job which is 35k+ and i shall be able to show whole 35k through my salary slips at the time of my ILR in Sep/Oct 2015, its just i am a bit concerned about one of the bad financial year in between my extension and ILR.
Please help/advice me ! (if possible, suggest me something with any refernce).
Your advice will be appreciated.
Cheers
