Self employed

301bucks August 5, 2009 17:32

Hi, hope you all are well. Bit concerned SW mentioned that as both DH and self have been self employed for 8 and 10 years respectively this could cause difficulties down the line as far as employment references are concerned. We each have long standing clients who would be happy to give references but SW feels this is not the same or enough. Also two previous employers are no longer up and running. Anyone had similar hurdle? advice most appreciated.Thanks 301bucks

Likewise DH's accountant of 20 years gave his 'work' reference which was acceptable. He also gave DH's earnings info.Midge
