Questions before filingWhat applicants usually ask.Open a question for a clear answer before you decide how to proceed.
Does the business need to be operational already?

Not necessarily, but the file should still show a credible plan and enough supporting evidence for the route.

Is this the same as a work visa?

No. The evidence and purpose are different, so we compare them before making a recommendation.
