Some background information
I am self employed with two registered (partnership) firms, one manufacturing auto parts other manufacturing electronics. I oversee the engineering in both firms. Towards the work of Firm A i devote 6 hours/day 36 hours/week, Towards the work of Form B, i devote 4 Hours/Day, 24 Hours/week. I am attaching the following documents for each as proof of employment (in total i have to submit 2 proof of employment documents):
- Partnership deed
- PAN card
- VAT registration certificate, Import/Export License
- other relevant certification docs (ISO/TS 16949 certification, Design Patent Applications, etc., etc.)
- a signed and stamped declaration (partner stamp) by self on company letterhead declaring my nature of partnership, my % share, my duties (in brief), my working hours (daily and weekly total), some background about the company, a list clients, etc. It also contains an index of all the documents that I have attached (This is the first document in each of my proof of employment document).
- a declaration by my partner on company letterhead declaring the same information as above, in his own words.
- last 6 months bank statement of my company account (bank attested)
- letters from my 2 clients declaring what they purchase from me, with order numbers/date/amount/mode of payment/date of payment, etc. They have also mentioned about my role (technical, engineering) in the best of their knowledge.
- declaration letter on company letterhead from silent partners enlisting details about working partners.
- bank statement highlighting money received for orders processed (bank attested)
- Income tax returns of last two financial years for both of my companies
- also my declaration contains a note that I am unable to attach more documents because of size restrictions (max 4 mb), but I am willing to share more documents should they be required.
All letterheads contain full contact information (company address, email, phone number etc.) and letters also mention the designations of the individuals signing the letter with their individual contact numbers.
The question
I am a little worried regarding letters from clients. Would 2 client letters for each firm suffice as proof?
For Firm A, It is not practically possible to obtain letters from all of my clients, because 95% of our clients are foreign companies. Therefore, I am attaching 2 letters, 1 each for Foreign and domestic clients.
For Firm B, I can attach more client letters because most of the clients are local businessmen and also because it's just a small scale tech startup and has very little business.
The other issue is also the size limitation. I am already finding it tough to attach so many documents (with good enough quality) in just 4 MB.
Kindly advice.
Thanks,
