Hi Manka,

Thank you for your quick reply. I must appreciate your help.

Now the questions will be on again Self employement

1. Out of my 10 customer (10 Ltd companies) , five ltd companies are One group and one manager has assign to give projects but I have been adviced that you should raise five different invoices to five companies and will also get paid five different remittance. If UKBA want to verify one of those invoices to one of those group companies they will be calling the same manager and he is field base so no landline number will be given but mobile no. So my work only that manager can verify. In that case … is that ok for UKBA to provide one manger name and contact (mobile no ) to verify five companies work I do? Or shall I take a letter from that Manager on Group of Companies letter head explaining my project work.

When should I book my PEO appointment if my visa getting expired on 12/12/12?


Thanks once again for your help.

If he is the only one who can verify your work then all invoices can be addressed to him with his company name, his mobile & company switch board number. no need for any letter

UKBA may contact if they have doubts or if the amount from any single company is big enuf to set their alarm bells ringin

on second thought you might want to include the contract agreement with all those 5 companies as UKBA may think why same manager for 5 different companies

Thanks for your extreme and fast reply.

I will also amend my sales invoices to his name and telephone and email address with different company name.

I will get contract letter signed from all five companies and with other customers as well. What will happen if I have some one-off customers whom I have given my services to once only in last 12 months? Do I also need to get letter signed from them?

The manager has to travel to five different sites out of which four are in same area with little distance and one is in central london. So if I give landline number still do not know what time he will be at what place? So still I will provide them landline for all five companies with mobile number. Is that ok?

Thanks once again
