Dependent as self employed

Post by QSDanik » Thu Oct 27, 2016 3:43 pm

Hi Friends,
I am searching if there is restriction on dependent visa for being as self employed, I checked policy documents and board but I could not find any information. Can some one please advise me as My wife is my tier 1 dependent and she want to run her own beauty saloon shop. or she also allowed to register as limited company.
I will be grateful to you guys.
Thanks
Regards
QS Danik

She can be self employed, there is no restriction on self employment for Tier 1 Ent dependents.

A Tier 1E dependant under PBS system is allowed to take any job or employment including self-employment or starting a new company in the UK. The only job restrictions are that she cannot work as a doctor or dentist in training or as a professional sportsperson.

See page 78 of https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... _clean.pdf
