Hi all,
I'm a European Union citizen and I'm going to apply for permanent residence in the UK.
Like many people on this forum I provide my services through my own limited company of which I am the sole employee and director, and I have been for the past 7 years, all residing in the UK.
I'm not totally sure how to go about my application. The Home Office requires me to send them proof of work. I know that for the HMRC I am an employee, but in the context of this application I think I may qualify as self-employed instead. I get this impression from reading the guidance notes from the Home Office. There is a big difference between the 2 situations, because the list of documents I would have to attach to my application would be totally different. It will take up to 6 months to the Home Office to reply to my application, so I want to be 100% sure I am doing things right and not wasting time.
Has any of you guys done the same application I am doing? What documents did you attach?
