Explanation and expert opinion req...

Post by webmaster11 » Sat Dec 29, 2012 8:32 pm

i am very confused i have been working as a web developer for like 6 months now.. just opened my company and i am ready to apply for the tier 1 entrepreneur visa. But i was reading the policy guidance and it got me very confused that wat i am doing is on NQF LEVEL 4 but UKBA will not consider such activities. as stated in page 7 of policy guidance i.e as following

(iv) are working in an occupation which appears on the list of occupations
skilled to National Qualifications Framework level 4 or above, as stated in
the Codes of Practice in Appendix J of the Immigration Rules and the Codes of Practice for Tier 2 Sponsors published by the UK Border Agency, and youprovide the specified evidence in paragraph 41-SD. “Working” in this context means that the core service your business provides to its customers or clients involves the business delivering a service in an occupation at this level. It excludes any work involved in administration, marketing or website functions for the business.''

It means persons who develop websites or work as a marketing consultant etc can not apply for this visa?? experts opinion is required...
