Proving self employment for EEA4 (Surinder Singh)

Post by expatbg123 » Sat Mar 18, 2017 8:47 pm

Hi
I am a non-EU and I am wanting to apply for PR by EEA4 in UK under Surinder Singh.
My spouse is UK citizen and I came to UK on Family Permit (2011) shortly after obtained RC. Both were issued as he had a company in Bulgaria owning one property. He did not take a salary from his company but took money out when needed shown in accounts as returning initial investment.
The new EEA4 form states that evidence of sponsor's employment or self-employment but how can this be proved? He can provide online bank statements and yearly accounts but this shows payment/registration of taxes as a company not as a self employed company and we were in Bulgaria for 10 months after which there has been few transactions in the Bulgarian company bank account.
When we applied for the EEA2, he wrote a letter stated that he employed himself which they accepted at the time as he is and was the only employee of his company.
None of this was required before and FP and EEA2 RC was issued. On this basis can they refuse PR if treaty rights cannot be evidenced? Thanks in advance for any advice
