Hi
Good day
My Visa is Tier 2 ICT Long Term Staff Migrant
Valid from 02/14 to 02/17
National: Malaysian
My company : A Class Sponsor
My question
1. Can I extend my Visa for another 2 years after 2017 under ICT Long Term Staff Migrant
2. Incase I want to switch to Tier 2 ( General )
- Do I need to wait till my current ICT Visa expired in 2017 before I leave UK and reapply for Tier 2 ( General )
- Is 1 year cooling period apply to me
- Can my current sponsor apply Tier 2 (General) for me
In case I got my Tier 2 ( General ) in 09/2016 can I apply for IDR in 09/2021.
Would appreciate if you could advise me on this matter
Thanks

In country switching not allowed, need to apply from your home country & 1 year cooling period will apply after your exit from UK.
Would appreciate if you could advise me on this matter

You leave the UK. 12 months later you can apply for Tier 2 General. If you meet the other requirements for ILR, you could apply after 5 years on Tier 2 general.
