I company director can be from anywhere and even be resident in another country so I think it's ok.sashank wrote:Hi All
Can spouse(Dependant Status) of workpermit holder become director in the company where the wp holder has permission to work?
The wp holder rented the business with certain amounts to pay to the landlord's company and asked the landlord to be secretary and made his spouse direcotor. He then changed the workpermit in the same company where his spouse is director.try-one wrote:It is fishy;
sounds very strange that the WP holders is a mere employee and the "dependant" is a highly regarded Director!
If I were a case worker I would get suspicious.....if you have done everything by the book, then there is no specific restriction and yes, the dependant can be a director or can engage in any legal work, no restriction as to the type of company/salary/etc.
But he came to this country as workpermit holder and that was genuine and last year the landlord wanted him to run business at his own expense and later ho approved his change of employer successfully eventhough his spouse signed to confirm her being officer of the company and want him to act as employee so technically he is employed by his wife's companytry-one wrote:There you have it,
You wanted to know if spouse could be a director; technically yes, spouse can be a director, in reality you are just highlighting and bringing attention to the fact that the WP is creating an artificial employment/contract and is breaking the WP rules by being self employed.
; hence WP Holder is paying his employer, in other words he is self employed.......run business at his own expense
