Spouse Visa - LTD company?

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

My only real comment is that as far as the Home Office is concerned, they are ticking boxes on a computer screen and you have to provide the information that will enable the guy doing it, to tick the right boxes as far as your concerned.

I agree with your sums and I've just looked at the Home Office website, where it says:

What counts as income

You and your partner can use:

-income from employment before tax and National Insurance (check your P60 or payslips) - you can only use your own income if you earn it in the UK
-income you earn from self-employment or as a director of a limited company in the UK - check your Self Assessment tax return
-cash savings above £16,000
-money from a pension
-non-work income, for example from property rentals or dividends

If you’re using income from self-employment or employment, you’ll need to prove you or your partner received that income for 6 months or more.

So these are the only permitted sources to count towards your wife's application.  Probably might be a good idea to take this list back to your accountant and tell him to wave his magic abacus over your numbers to make this work (or face a fed up wife).

Hope this helps.

Ok, thank you very much. I shall show him the requirements and see what he suggests - Getting advise from solicitors cost £130, and the average quote to do the case work is £1000 ! Regardless of how much you earn. I dont think solicitors can justify charging £1000 for a spouse extension!.
