let them call whatever they call it genuine entrepreneur test or whatever what concerns you is your business and aspects.

questions will include the source of money, your experience to run a business you are running(its not relevant question that they ask however your should have a tactful answer for it), why you chose this business, research if you carried out any before you undertook the business, competitors and business activities.

make sure you have relevant recognition or accreditation from regulators and/or professional body if you need any approval etc. and business insurance

you should be okay with everything provided you are running your business and your are activity involved and engaged in providing services to your clients.

rest is ''Best of Luck''

Thanks for your reply Princess of Ammi
we do have insurance but we do not any have registration with trading body as our business is marketing and IT,it is not compulsory to have that apart from that we have submitted one contract and two invoice and letter from bank confirming business is trading.funds should be fine as it is our own saving.but we do not have relevant experience.
