Owning a company/business from tier 1 visa to tier 2 visa

Post by randomblinks » Fri Jan 18, 2013 9:45 pm

Hi there,

I am currently on a PSW visa which is due to run out soon. I am in full time employment and the company has agreed to sponsor me for a tier 2 visa when my PSW runs out. I am thinking of forming a company/business and put my properties under it for tax purposes. Can I legally form this company/business whilst on tier 1 PSW visa and continue to own it while on my tier 2 visa? Thank you all =]

when your on Tier 2 visa you not are allowed to run your own limited company . By the way why do you put ur properties under a company ?

Hi there thanks for the reply. Can I know in which article is it state that you could still run a company whilst on tier 2 visa?

I'm looking to put properties under this company because I am currently on a 40% tax bracket.
