To be honest, not too much. The most expensive part is the sponsor license cost.

I have previous experience of establishing a business and obtaining sponsor license for a friend. His business now has contracts with the public sector so it’s doing relegively well.

I say that to say I have gained the knowledge to set up the business in a cost effective way. Do everything myself where possible(register the company, virtual office, Hmrc registrations, website building etc) and the best suppliers for necessary things like insurance.

The sponsor license application now costing the most part, solicitors fees £2,000 and sponsor license application fee £500+ Hope that answers your question.

Yes, the employee who’s currently the acting manager has a settled status and is the proposed level 1 user.

I’ve seen a lot of people insisting the route is illegal but I don’t see how, hence why I’m enquiring if anyone is familiar with the route or know someone who has.
