Hi all,

I have submitted PR application and recently received an ADR regarding 2 consecutive periods of freelance work (I changed cities so divided one single portion into two in my application) and 1 portion of self-employed work.
For the freelance I did small projects on Upwork and Freelancer.
For the self-employment part I work on my app ideas, made prototypes and scrapped them when I couldn't get good user feedback. User feedback was gained offline.

How do I explain this? And what type of document am I supposed to submit?

My work experience is not related to freelance and was easy to prove. I submitted joining letter, payslips, and experience letter.

You've not explained what the ADR is asking for:
1. is it asking for your duties and supporting evidence?
2. or, is it asking for proof of freelance work done?

They asked for the following things
1. What is the name of your business, the type of business, and what service or product the company provides?
2. Give any documents that helps in understanding the business and your role there.
3. Give external sources or company link, if available, if not, please explain why.

Did they ask anything about working full-time as self-employed? Or you provided anything about it?

My friend is in the same boat and I helped him with his application. I know it's very hard to prove self employed experience in EE.

Could you please give your timeline?
