Self-Sponsorship Skilled Worker Visa Application: Our client sought to establish a UK company to serve clients, previously managed overseas. Due to time differences and the hands-on nature of the work, relocating to the UK was essential. As client sponsorship wasn't feasible for simultaneous project work, we recommended the Skilled Worker route via 'self-sponsorship.' This involved incorporating a new company, making the client the majority shareholder, and appointing a British associate as a director to handle key roles. We assisted in developing HR packages for compliance. Presenting the case to the Home Office, we emphasized the necessity of the client's presence for business success, supported by evidence of proposed contracts. The application was successful, enabling the client to relocate and serve UK clients effectively.
