Tier 1 extension- Forming Limited company

[jhansi_82]

Hello All,

I am about to register my limited company for my tier 1 extension purpose.

There are several types of formation by the agents and the charges vary.

Basic is compnay formation+ one bank account+ digital documents.

Is this suffucient in the eyes of ukbia to prove me as self employed?

or should i go for the original documents provided by the agents while the formation which would cost me more?

Thanks

Personally I'd go for a service that offers a paper certificate. Even away from any UKBA factors, you'll likely need the certificate for opening a bank account.

Again in my opinion, there's no real need for spending a huge amount of money on an all singing all dancing package where many features can be superfluous to what you really need - but do go paper incorporation certificate.

but do go paper incorporation certificate

But suspect he has a printer, and as necessary can buy a ream of card of the required colour, to print out the PDF file of the Certificate of Incorporation.

jhansi_82, do ensure that the service you use is not too basic! For example, if they are using the standard Articles of Association to incorporate the company, and the company will have just one Director, do they provide the needed amending document, to ensure that just one Director is OK?

Thanks a lot for the replies.

Can I ask my clients (who may not have any limited companies) to pay as cheque in the name of my limited company?

Why not? But of course the limited company will need to open its own bank account, and then no problem you paying in those cheques.
