Problem Statement

I created new status e.g. "Blocked-V" in Jira

I changed the status of to "Blocked-V"

I am able to change the type of issue but not able to send it for 

1) Verification or 2) Close it

The only option I see is to delete the issue

Please suggest alternatives or workarounds the earliest.
