Tax question - is this deception?

[siftkhanz]

First of all I am sorry if this question have been asked before or if this is the right post to ask this question

My ILR is due next month on five year route just a quick background on my previous applications

2011 = part salaried - part dividend through company

2013 = dividend income only

2016 = will be again part salaried - part dividend income

my question is back in 2013 I showed dividend income of about 40K (which was declared to HMRC) and visa was issued even though income of 35K was sufficient in my case.

I amended my tax returns and did them 36K for the year 2013 as I genuinely did not added some expenses for the year 2013.

Now all my taxes are paid and up to date, so my question will this be considered as deception for my ilr appliation.

Thanks

To avoid confusion & jumbled responses, I have moved your question to its own thread (this one).

Should be Okay !

Home-Office are more concern about foul play.

At-least you are meeting the threshold of £35000.

Most of the people how are in trouble are the one who either did not submit the tax returns at all ( even if no tax was due, for example director of the company who took dividend but no tax due on these divident) or people who have large amount of tax differences to what shown to home office and HMRC and specially the one whom have lost their threshold to gain (After Submitting the Original Tax Returns to HMRC) the relevant points in order to secure the Tier 1 initial or extension.

Even if they have amended the tax returns on later stages to correct their mistake they are still getting a negative view ( Rejection in some Case's ) from home office.

I Hope this will put your nerve at some ease. But be prepaid for some awkward question from Case Worker.

Good Luck !

If you have complexity in your application post your application. CW on most of PSC are junior and dont understand amendment and taxation.

Sheffield and Croydon have many senior CW.

Liverpool Head of CW's is an accountant himself so his team is quiet an expert in self employed applications.

In m opinion this should not be deception. It is possible to have amendments and HMRC wouldn't allow you credit just because you claimed it.
Also the point is, even if you claimed 36K in the first instance, your visa would have been renewed anyways.
That's my opinion.
Best of Luck
