1. Read the guide: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... -_v.25.pdf

2. That may make them question your business genuineness if you want to claim that as part of the job creation.

Thank you so much Zimba,

If you’ve not been able to employ staff for 12 months by the time your visa expires, you’ll be allowed
to extend your stay for a further 2 years, if you can show:
• You’ve created at least 2 jobs by the date you apply,
• You’ve been unable to employ staff for 12 months due to coronavirus.
my business got affected as i launched some products just before Covid. I ( have proof)due to lockdown i couldn't promote and employ staff)

This means i still have chance? just wanted to confirm?
kind regards
Nitesh

Then she doesn't count for job creation as she is not considered settled

Hi Nitesh

Just a quick question, did you engaged in any business activities in 1st two years after getting Visa?

Did you hire any staff ?

Due to covid19 I couldn’t hire any staff during 1st two years

All the best for your extension nitesh, this immigration broad mods are selfless and very helpful, try gather all the documents prior application

Just a quick question, could you please give me a mode of method you used to transfer from your home country to uk as I have little issues in transferring funds due to current regulations back home

Take care, all the best
