farewell

Not relevant to tax returns but thought someone in here might be able to help with this.

I am applying for a spouse visa for my wife and part of the financial requirements, as a self-employed person, requires me to do this:

Provide unaudited accounts for the last full financial year and an
accountant’s certificate of confirmation, from an accountant who is a
member of a UK Recognised Supervisory Body (as defined in the
Companies Act 2006) or who is a member of the Institute of Financial
Accountants.

I have no idea what the above actually means. I do my own tax returns and work as a self-employed courier so my "accounts" are just money paid weekly into my personal bank account.

How likely is it an accountant will issue a certificate for someone who is not their client?

Dunno. Find one and ask? Could be that they need your invoices and bank statements and tax returns and they can compile them and sign them off.

If you didn’t invoice at the time you can create them retrospectively for the purpose of the accounts I guess.
