Tier 1 Entrepreneur Team Member's Application..

[adeeltariq82]

Hi,

Can someone please guide on following :

I am applying for Tier 1 Entrepreneur from PSW with my friend who is on PSW as well and we have joint account with 50k in that , Can someone pls guide me whether we have to send 2 separate applications or in just 1 royal mail special delivery ?

Also if our applications are to be sent separate, how much they are interlinked to each other ?

Thanks

It has to be two separate application forms. Reading the form and guidance will help clarify how a team application is treated.

Thanks ,

On application form or policy guidance it doesn't say whether the application is treated separate or together, also one more thing I wanted to ask please , my friends visa expires in match 2013 and mine in oct 2012 , do we both have to apply at same time for entrepreneur team or I can send application and he may apply later ?

Thanks

You need two application forms but hey need to be send as 1 application i.e. UKBA will consider it as 1 case only. They are interdependent because either both of you will get visa or none will.

Irrespective of your visa expiry date, team members must apply together as the visa is granted to run a business in UK and invest the funds.

Thanks for your reply. I spoke with my solicitor earlier according to him these are 2 separate applications. It does not state on UKbA policy guidance as well if both applications are interlinked or not . For instance if one applicant fails to provide any certain document but other applicant is providing all why should they refuse both

The only problem is you have to show that you can invest £50000. Now if one applicant is refused for any reason than how will the second applicant prove that he still have access to that £50000.

[adeeltariq82]

it is a joint account and we both have access to e£50k

[entreprenuer11]

it is a joint account and we both have access to e£50k

so that means you are sharing this investment, now if 1 persons visa is refused for any reason like their immigration history than other person will not get visa as well because he is left with only £25000 investment than.

There is no such rule which states that both applicants have to apply at the same time.

Both of you can/should apply separately i.e two applications in two envelopes.

Read this thread http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewto ... ht=#738544 in which one is issued and one is refused.
