      There aren't any problems with doing that. I'm from New Zealand and started contracting through a limited company whilst I was on a Working Holiday visa. Checked it all out with my accountants first of course. Do that, make some money and then gun for an HSMP

        I am a kiwi and am on a WHM visa (soon getting HSMP). It clearly says "no business" on my passport and inthe guidelines setout by the homeoffice. So for now i am stuck with Giant.

        As soon as i get my HSMP stamp in my passport i will be going for my own LTD Co.

        u might be on dangerous ground mate, be careful.

          ******* antipodeans on WHVs,

          Come here, undercut the locals with their "Limited Company" pay no tax, wind up company after one year (not paying any tax) then **** off home.

          I know of several chaps in the building trades who've done exactly as above.

            Easy there,

            HMRC has an Office in NZ for those of you who do not know to track these guys.
