I seriously dont understand what exactly is the worry?

Are you guys not confident enough with your business plan?

Just go with the flow they will only ask about the future plan how do you plan to implement your business and the growth prospective.

All the very best to those who are being called in for interview and to be very honest it is best to be called in for an interview instead of getting a refusual letter atleast you will be able to fight your corner.

I do agree with you, basically I am excited from inside and confident, I am positive thinker.

But just worrying about will they ask about finances, business plan, degree, experience etc?

And i applied via psw route, and also showed i am already in online trading so just want to know how to cover all this!

And business plan for an IT business.

Regards

Do not worry they will not bite you ......................... but instead you can do that with solid business plan and how you will take step on ladders one by one to reach the top.

you need to be on top of your game when it comes to your business and nothing they can do remember as long as you know what you doing and what ur plans are.

good luck

1. How can i satisfy a case worker about my experience in business?
2. How did i get funds?
3. What if ask that you have a different educational background but doing business in different trade?
4. Than what qualifications you have for this business?

First of all there is no guarantee any1 can be sucessfull in business,

If you have experience in relevant business fair enough if not than you must have done some home work before registering a business n applying for visa. Unless you have done this just for the sake of visa than its hard to answer n satisfy.

Funds in your account that shouldn't be a problem and u can say u borrowed frm family etc u had savings, investments etc or third party financer etc whichever fits in ur case.

If you have done market research u can answer this question n number 1.


Again if u have qualification in relevant field than good if not than again your intrest in something and your market research and business plan put all together shows ur intrest in business.

If u don't could u tell me what is ur qualification and wht nature of business u registered?

Also wht is ur job title etc?

Regards

Bro ur answers r in ur questions .... U don't hve degree in IT fine but as long as u can convince the caseworker that bcz of ur intrest n previous experience u wantd to do this business and u done ur home work (market research) and InshAllah u will have no probs.

Probs will come if u registered IT just for the sake of visa n u dnt knw nothing abt IT at all ... But u will be absolutely fine just be confident and the way u wrote here same way u need to speak there n all gud

Good luck
