Depend what type of evidence you are submitting.

If invoices and bank statements are your two choices of evidence then yes you need to submit all.

If you choosing accountant letter and bank statements then no need to include any invoice.

Either include all or not at all. It will confuse caseworker and he/she might not give you decision same day.

Keep things simple. Dont complicate caseworker and your life.

If you go through the extension form Page 26 & 27 ... Two type of evidence need to shown.

The following combinations are acceptable:

Bank Statements + Invoices

Bank Statements + Accountant letter

Bank Statements + Profit and Loss sheet from Accountant

Bank Statements + Invoice Summary from Accountant


Just pick one of these combinations and you will be fine.

Caseworker is not interested in bulk of documents, precision is the key to success :D

I am also a Ltd company Director but not sure as I have been earning only dividend and not sure of NI as mentioned.

Am I supposed to be registered as self employed? I am not registered as I am a Ltd Compnay director and no NI paid on dividend. So not sure. Please can you assist to clarify and note that I have only been earning dividend only and not salary.

I am totally surprised how are you guys running a company without having any basic knowledge of Taxation System.

These things have triggered alarms of UKBA and it puts a lot of genuine applicants in waiting list.

Dear akan

I wondered if you can advise. I am applying for my ILR as Employed/Self Employed (Contractor) in 5-6 months time. The paper work for Employed income is straight forward however the self employed one is slightly confusing. Since I am a contractor, therefore I do not have a limited company or business bank account for my self employment. I work for a US company and they pay me monthly in two installment directly in to my personal bank account and that is my gross income. I will be claiming income from Jan13-Aug 13 but I will submit my tax returns in Jan 2014 which means that technically I cant show the official tax returns letter provided by HMRC. Is this a mandatory requirement for a self employed contractor? Combination of documents that I have to submit are accountant letter+personal bank statements along with my last monthly Class2NI payment receipt. Its not a requirement but as a support I will have a letter from the US company that I am working for and also my monthly invoices request+company's receipts that my invoices were paid. I would be grateful for your advise
