I have applied on 4th april 214 under old rules but I got visa in mid of May 2014. I have 1 employee so far. Do I need 2 employees in one year or 1 employee for 2 years will fulfil the extension requirement?

This is extract from Tier1 Ent Guidance Doc...

Transitional arrangement
people who successfully applied to enter the route before 6 April 2014 may continue to employ:

 a single worker for 24 months; or
 one worker for 6 months and one for 18 months; or
 four workers for six months each

and still meet the requirements when they apply for extensions and for settlement. Anyone applying to enter the route on or after 6 April 2014 must create employment for at least two separate people and the jobs must exist for at least a full 12 months each.

However, there is lil' bit grey area, on what they exactly meant by ''successfully applied'', this could literally mean 'applied- application lodged' or successfully 'received visa'. So far we all are considering this meant successful visa application.

as stated earlier reply, Transitional arrangement give you that flexibility, it up to you and your business requirement, you can either have 1 for 24 mnths or 2 for 12 m or 1 for 1 year and 2 for 6m each or any mix max will do.

Hi Guys, i am also in the same dilemma as to follow the new guidelines about employment or the previous ones, as i have successfully applied for my Visa on the 12th of Jan 2013 however i got my approval letter on the 17th of April 2014, Visa starting date is 17th April 2014, which policy should i follow as far as employment creation is concern.
I am really confused ??????

people who successfully applied to enter the route before 6 April 2014 may continue to employ:

 a single worker for 24 months; or
 one worker for 6 months and one for 18 months; or
 four workers for six months each

I believe you applied in jan,2013 so you can continue to employ:

 a single worker for 24 months; or
 one worker for 6 months and one for 18 months; or
 four workers for six months each

The people who applied on after 6th april,2013 will need 2 employees for 12 months.

Hope this helps.
