I’ll let you know how I go. I’m in a similar position, but also in a worse one.

I work for family business and it’s an ordinary partnership so no business reg. - I sent VAT document which had all the same info but not sure if they’ll accept it. (I’m also British so not sure what your equivalent is)

I also didn’t have a formal contract. And I’ve been travelling for two years so have zero income tax (only started working recently)

These are all documents they’ve asked additionally. We’ll see what they say.

Update: status has changed to pending approval
