That might be the case but I believe they should have verified everything before they called us for the interview. I was been told interviews are held only for a reason to prove if you are really a genuine entrepreneur and to know more about your business.

I think delay is because of number of application received for tier 1 entrepreneur and it got nothing to do with verification as it doesn't take long to verify documents or statement as 1 email and job is done ..... and I think now same thing is happening with interviews and there is a backlog at decision after interview ..... as many of us were called for interview and some of them are lucky that they got the reply on time and some are still waiting.

but again paying visa fees in thousands and still wait for 6 to 8 months to get the decision is just rubbish ..... this could be done in much better and quicker way if they want.

but we cant do nothing apart from waiting I guess.
