UC employed and self employed. Self employment first appointment what to expect?

Hi, 

My husband works for a company and earns 1200 monthly which Uc knows about. He has opened a company last month as he’s a photographer and would like to do some freelancing work to earn more. He hasn’t made any profit yet. He has an appointment for self employment as we told Uc about this. 

What do we expect from this appointment? Like what proof we need to take in does anyone know? Does he need to show them his account statement or UTR etc? It’s not his main source of earning and as I said he’s not made any profit he’s only got one job since then. 

Thanks in advance want to be prepare

They will want to know about his self employed work. I have no idea what questions he will be asked exactly, others may give you some idea. As self employed he will need to report his earnings and expenses on the last day of each assessment period. Some information here. https://www.gov.uk/self-employment-and-universal-credit
