Made application for switch to Tier 4 then UKVCASshutdown - questions

Post by LondonDPO » Sun Apr 19, 2020 3:03 pm

Hello,

Applying for Tier 2 ICT -> Tier 4 General

1. Any estimation on turnaround times for approval once UKVCAS reopens? My appt is now May 11 (after they rescheduled three times).

2. After the interview, I assume I will receive an approval letter and then later a BRP - can I work using just the approval letter? Or does it all come at once 4-8 weeks later? (standard service)

3. I have changed house in the months since I made my application - how can I change my address with UKVCAS?

Thank you!

Check directly with your employer what evidence they need of your continued right to work. There is a general guide to Employer's Right to Work Checks, but some employers go further. See https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... yers-guide

I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
