Hi all, I need bit of confirmation and clarity. I have global talent visa for five years ( don't also why I took it for five years) in the biology domain. Now I want to switch my job to data science which is a computational domain. My question is am I allowed to work in same visa? The official documentation does not say i can not move to different field that i have been endorsed.
I am assuming unless I submitting request to ILR, where I do have to show that I have been working in a field where I am endorsed, i can work in any field ( barring medical etc)
Is this correct? Please do respond. Thanks a ton!

The ILR application asks for "Evidence you have earned money in the UK as a result of your employment or self employment in the expert field for which you are endorsed by a Designated Competent Body."
In short, you need to show you've earned money in your expert filed.
All the best,

You can work as a selfemployed or can do a job in any filed (except the bar about Dentist and sportmen in GTV). During LR application, you need shows that you haved earn in the field of endorsement . the earning can be some time of during your global talent visa but must not required during the ILR application.
