WP holders allowed to work b4 FLR

Post by Chess » Thu Nov 04, 2004 2:25 pm

It appears HO are addressing some of the nagging issue..

..if you have been on WP and changing employers yo can do so ...so long as you have valid leave to remain



If they refise your FLR application then you need to stop employment :roll:

Thats really good news and it applies retrospectively. I understand this applies to work permit holders who are changing employers.

I wonder if it also applies to work permit holders who have recieved HSMP approval letters.

Thats excellent. like to see progress. at least now pple wont need to worry bout changing employers because that 10 - 12 week wait for FLR was really discouraging

Extension of the new approach for switching to HSMP

Post by paresh1 » Sun Dec 05, 2004 11:31 am

Logically, if you are a current work permit holder, then switching over by getting another job by the route of work permit or by having HSMP visa should be treated similarly. Then why home office has not allowed HSMP visa holders to switch without requiring FLR(IED). How should we register this fact on Home office officials/decision makers?
