Another question (I love this board, so useful!): I am in the slightly odd position of being employed full-time, as well as making some money on the side doing freelance projects. These freelance projects make up the majority of my savings, but is only a few grand on the side here-and-there.
Question is, how will I go about proving this extra income? Is there a correct procedure I should go through?
Thanks
Dan
If you are not declaring these earnings to HM Inspectorate of Tax, then its best not to declare them with your application, as you can come unstuck with the above authorities.sushdmehta wrote:danturner81 wrote:Hi Guys,

This is a bit over the top! If you send in your application through the post that way, they throw out your binder and plastic sheets before the ECO even sees everything.STLewis wrote:HI Dan,
We were successful last year with my husband's visa which I put together. I did infact use a lever archer folder with dividers and typed up a "Contents Page" which I placed at the front. I put everything in clear plastic wallets and including as much as I could think of i.e A letter from myself as "sponser", my qualifications certificate and business card; character references from my colleague (a lawyer) and close friend; photos, one year of itemised mobile phone bills; all emails, cards, photos; translated copies of marriage certificate and my husbands Degree and qualifications; 3 months bank statements and savings; copies of all relevant jobs from job centre website, which would be suitable for my husband (this was to evidence the fact there were plenty of jobs in my area he would be able to do).
The lady he dealt with at Worldbridge told him the file was very good, and not to worry.
I think presenting presenting it like can only help; after all you wouldn't hand in a grotty CV with loose papers for an important job would you?
Good luck!
