ORIGINAL POSTERHi
I have recently registered a freelance business in England. I want to apply for DTV in London but wonder if I will be asked for proof of profit for my company or business contracts. I obviously don’t have any yet but can satisfy all other requirements of DTV.
I’m just wondering if anyone has a similar situation and were successful in receiving DTV. Thanks

You need to be able to prove income and show tax returns, I've just done it. Your basically showing your concept works and you can sustain yourself, at this time you have no proof.

ORIGINAL POSTERYes I have experience of owning and running a business.

I don't think it's too out of line to have a newly formed business to possibly take advantage of what the DTV is offering and you are looking for some work. Do you have any previous experience or work history in this field?Linny *******
ORIGINAL POSTERThat’s true. Why do they sometimes ask for tax returns though ? Proof of business maybe?

@Linny ******
Yes they want to know you work for a legit business.Sam *********
im assuming having money really helps and has done with past METV. if you have a very healthy bank balance/investments then they are more lenient as they know you can support yourself and will bring in decent money to spend. just my theory

@Andi **********
right, i think it is case by case, but showing online website, bank statements with income from who you say you work for, etc may work. ill update when i apply but im an affiliate but dont hav uk company or tax returns.Andi ***********
@Sam ********
Yeah, it is case by caseSam *********
@Linny ******
just a guess, but i think for cases where the "portfolio" looks like it may not be legit. a live website would be legit id hopeLinny *******
ORIGINAL POSTER@Sam ********

@Linny ******
They can ask for them if they are not satisfied without themRob *********
@Sam ********

@Rob ********
