Tier 1 Dependant Visa if Main Applicant is Self employed

[skyhaoo]

Hi,

I have switched from permanent employee to self employed through limited company recently. Now I need to apply Tier 1 dependant visa for my child who is outside of UK.

1. What documentation should I produce to support I am employed through my own limited company? Can I use the letter from my accountant? Or any other documentation?
2. My child was born in UK but he has not applied dependant visa at that moment as he has to travel back to my home country after he was born here for 4 months. Would this be an issue to apply dependant visa for him now?

Any answers and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks, H

2. birth certificate
3. maintenance funds are main

no issues on that..

Thank you for your reply.

So the letter from accountant should be recognised, right?
