Employs working period

[Meesha]

Dear Senior Forum members,
I am up for extension by the end of this year. I hired two employes last October. They completed one year by the end of september (12 months). I will apply for extension in late november. I know home office requirment is for one year but time gap between extension and my employes completing one year is too short. My question is that
1: Do i need those two employes working for me during next two months untill i apply for extension and do i need to keep them during extension application procedure?
2:. I have one year contract at start which is now expired, do i need to renew it now or can i hire new employes once i get my extension?
Thanks a lot

No, the jobs do not need to exist during or before extension. The benchmark is min duration had to be completed

2:. I have one year contract at start which is now expired, do i need to renew it now or can i hire new employes once i get my extension?

The immigration rules do not prevent you from that
