I found only One Line in your process by which you got the Visa in my point of VIEW and this is :
5- I can see that you have Canadian Residency then why not invest in Canada
that's all rest of the things are simply as usuall as others
i think both the points have some weight.
For me bottom line is that you have to convince the ECO that your intentions are genuine. Its up to you what you do to convince him.
In 50 minutes of interview he never asked me what will be the wages, and other expenses, he even did not went in to the details of financial numbers and my business plan was also incomplete you know why? because i think i have approached this application as a true businessman interested in profits derived from successful business model called Franchise business of reputable food outlet. In first year of operations i had shown losses and then marginal return, it was a five year based business model and he did asked me that why are you investing when the return is too low. And my reply was that after 5 years i will have a chain of outlets and its capital value will increase if i decide to sell the chain and do some thing else i will get huge capital gain. Those who know business finance will understand there is dividend business model and then there is asset based business model some times also called Capital gain based model.
May be the ECO was not that qualified to understand all this stuff but one thing is sure that the interview was very friendly , casual and even we exchanged jokes in middle of interview. In reply to his questions i shared with him my 15 years career in Finance and my achievements etc etc, to be honest it was great experience. After interview i was expecting that he might give my sister some hard time by asking same questions from her to cross check but he just told her that i am satisfied with all the business related details your brother has given and will not waste time asking same to you so just tell me how you are going to contribute in this business, i was surprised when i saw my sister coming out in just 15 minutes, and i was convinced that i will get the visa.
Anyways it could be anything bottom line is i got the visa
Now the real test starts once i land in UK next month.
and he didn't have knowledge about my business even the whole UKBA I can guarantee don't have knowledge about my business plan.so how come they can judge the ability ....well I am happy for you bro.
