    • Detailed explanation for the increase, and why the customer believes this is sustainable

All tax due is paid and up to date.

It is generally expected that any expenses or credit commitments associated with the business will have already been deducted from gross profit, but if there’re any business expenses or commitments not already factored in, these will need added to the application.

The system will request net profits or share of net profits, these figures need to match figures provided on the SA302.
