Heathrow immigration questions tier1 entrepreneur

Post by Tinatum » Sat Aug 12, 2017 9:58 am

Hi

Can someone please help me? I have finished 2 years of entrepreneur visa. I have my extension coming up in Aug 2018. I have made so far 35000 investment and around 2 contracts and 4 parttime employment on place. I am planning to do my remaining investment in 6 months time.

I am flying to india and Worrying about questions may be asked while returning from heathrow at immigration counter.

Please help me if anyone has recently travelled or anyone knows questions might be asked.
Thanks

I have travelled a lot in and out with a T1 Visa.
It is generally the standard questions as with any other travel.
What are you doing ? What business does your company do ? etc.
Mostly pleasant and never took more than a couple of minutes.
My comments are in no way meant to be advisory. I have no professional knowledge of immigration. These are based on my own experience, convictions and personal interpretation of publicly available information.

They might ask basic questions regarding your business activity. No need to worry at all

Hi,

Once I travelled and was asked at Heathrow about my business and my clients as well. Because I was working as a contractor then they put a call to client I was working for.

Just make sure you've got a good grasp of what you do for business and be confident when answering them.

Hope this helps. :) :)

Better to arrive on weekend or non working hours.

I have travelled as well I wasn't even asked a single question, apart from normal routine questions.
