Yes, you can use your job experience and salary from your e-commerce business to support your visa application, as long as you provide clear and verifiable documentation. This includes business registration, financial statements, tax records, and bank statements showing your business income.

If you are self-employed, you will need to submit more detailed evidence compared to salaried employees.

For New Zealand: international students cannot be self-employed while studying. You must work as an employee with a formal contract.

Cash income, business income or no ITR?

See whether your funds and documents will pass the NZ visa check.
