can director be employee of the company?

[samaygrg]

Hello all

I am sole director and shareholder of my pvt ltd company for T1 visa. I am just wondering if I can be employee ( who takes some pre-agreed flat rate pcm) from where NIC can be deducted?

I am aware that director's any salary though will not counted in the required 50K investment.

Any feedback and suggestions will be very appreciated.

Cheers

@ samaygrg,

As the director, you can take dividend from your business. Its better you discuss with your accountant if you have one.
