We recently helped it gain a sponsor licence( Read the story here). Today, the owner has been granted a five-year skilled worker visa.
The self-sponsorship visa is becoming popular among professionals who want to stay in the UK on a skilled worker visa to start their own business.
Many professionals currently on a skilled worker visa with a specific company wish to start their own ventures. The self-sponsorship route allows them to start and run their business while sponsoring themselves.
Recent graduates are also increasingly choosing this path. Instead of working for someone else, they are starting their own companies right after completing their studies and using the self-sponsorship route. This means you don’t need to work for five years before starting your own business. The self-sponsorship route is perfect for anyone who wants to start their own business immediately and sponsor themselves.
If you want to be your own boss and are interested in the self-sponsorship visa route, contact our team, and we will be happy to assist in getting self sponsor visa.
