Check new application form, page 25.
Tier 1 psw Transitional arrangement - 11 July 2014 - access to not less than £50000 and previously held leave as Tier 1 PSW migrant and since before 24 June 2014 and up to the date of your application you have been continuously engaged in business activity, either as registered self-employed or director, in an occupation at degree level.
That is a misprint in the form. This surely is a typoo error. I am saying this because at least at 10+ other places in POLICY GUIDANCE it is stated that business should have been registered before 11 July 2014 not 24 June 2014.
If you search policy guidance with date 24 June 2014. Not even a single result comes up. It means it is not stated there. However at least at dozen places it is stated there that business should have been registered before 11 July 2014. (examples given below)
Hope this helps.
