UKVI can question any decision you make in your business. So until ILR is grated, UKVI can question it

Update your address here: https://www.update-my-details.homeoffic ... k/overview
You should be able to create an account with UKVI and request an eVisa: https://www.gov.uk/view-prove-immigration-status

I assume you already met the employment requirement for ILR. You do not have to replace the job or advertise anything, etc. There are NO restrictions on how to run your business or who to hire as long as it is all legal.

It is your job to show that you are a genuine entrepreneur with a genuine business otherwise you cannot get ILR. Why are you asking us to help you with your business documents or what to send ?? We are not running your business and the documents asked are self-explanatory.

Tier 2 route do not exist. If you have a SOC allocated by a sponsor, you can vary your current ILR application to the skilled worker route application and you can resign later as a director when your visa is approved.

I can only advise on the immigration rules but cannot advise on any of the documents asked regarding your business. If you cannot provide any document for whatever reason then you can explain why to the UKVI. This is between you, your business and the UKVI

Note this is the ILR forum so your queries in this thread should be all about ILR, any specific skilled worker visa question must be asked in the relevant sub-forum instead.

1. Yes, however the minimum salary threshold for ILR is much higher now.
All you need to know about salary calculations under the Skilled Worker route

2. No
3. No. IHS payment is never refunded for a granted visa. You need to pay IHS for the full period of any visa
4. No. A skilled worker visa is about being sponsored
5. No

Congratulations :D
For now, you cannot apply for an eVisa unless you have BRP.
No more BRPs are not issued after October 31 either.
