Change in employer - what happens to old COS?

Post by aishusrinivasan » Mon Jun 12, 2023 10:37 am

Hi,
I am switching jobs and I have also received the new skilled worker visa for the new job. I am yet to inform my current employer that I am quitting, was about to inform this week. The new company applied for my visa in priority and it came within 1 day.
My question:
1. Would my current company know that the COS they issued has been cancelled and I have received my new skilled worker visa even before I inform them of my leaving?
Thank you

No the current employer won't know anything until you resign.

Ukvi does NOT inform employers if people apply for new visas

Please DO NOT send me a PM for immigration advice. I reserve the right to ignore the PM and not respond.
