Had the request for more information today. The say that as I have stated a residential address on my application I have to describe how I operate my business from this address.
Would 'As an office' be an acceptable answer?
Secondly they want a copy of 2 recent Purchase Orders. Never had the need for purchasing anything yet, so what do I do to satisfy them?Comment

Just put 'no puchase orders issued yet', and include some invoices instead.
That's what I did- and they sent the certificate.Comment
