Hi,

I just have a few questions please.

1. What is your timeline (when did you apply, biometrics etc)?
2. Are you 50K Entrepreneur or 200K?
3. The interview is done on Skype for everybody, or they give options, or did you request?

Thanks!

Its obvious all this is to affirm the genuineness of the business. I think there is no fixed way they do it except you should just run your business genuinely and if you do that you will be conversant with its operations.
