Hi,
Pretty much you have everything...
It sounds that you have not paid a single payment NI-2 ? As you have mentioned that direct debit arrangement letter / demand letter...... please clear this point....
When you started you self employment? from what is your 12 month bracket... reason for asking this is that if you are showing contracts between May 2012 to 2013s... you must have paid NI-2?

what 12 months your financial accounts will cover?

[venpad2008]

I have paid NI 58.30 for the period 06-05-2012 to 06-10-2012.
From October 2012 paying through Direct Debit every month setup by HMRC.
Started self employed from 06-05-2012.
claiming earnings from June 2012-May 2013(12 months).

You should be ok.
Small suggestions don't bombard all the documents on caseworker

In your case I would recommend keep all documents with you and provide each one on case worker's request.

I would suggest not to submit the following documents but keep it in hand

4 , 8 , 10

Hi All,
Thank you for your valuable suggestions and advices.

My Visa application got approved today at Croydon PEO.

waiting for BRP cards.

I claimed 35 points for my NET PROFIT (GROSS-EXPENSES). But UKBA Awarded 40 points for my GROSS earnings. They clearly mentioned in my decision letter that "Earnings claim points should be based on GROSS"
