Please be aware of using the kickstart scheme as "job creation".
It is very clear that from the website, that :
Job criteria
The jobs created with Kickstart Scheme funding must be new jobs. They must not:
replace existing or planned vacancies
cause existing employees, apprentices or contractors to lose work or reduce their working hours
Which means, when you have obtained your VISA prior to 2nd September 2020; i.e. ALL T1E visa holders, there would have been a REQUIREMENT to create 2 JOBs.
Since the kickstart grant is very specific that you CANNOT replace existing or planned vacancies, it is very clear that you CANNOT use the grant to create the job as your visa as a T1E should have had already had 2 vacancies. Therefore you cannot claim job creation with the kickstart scheme.
