May I work after my 1st visa expired and visa extn n process

Post by sanssan » Thu Feb 04, 2010 2:35 pm

Dear friends,

I do have my visa expires in 10.02.2010 (HSMP Visa for 2 years). On my extension, i will get extension for another 3 years.

I have already applied for extension. What will happen, if Visa extension is not coming before 10.02.2010?

Do I have rights to work in UK on my extension application processing time?

If you some rules, please send me the link. I can fwd that to my company HR Team.

Thanks in advance.

You are legal to work in UK and in ur job as long as a decision is taken on ur application by the HO..

If your employer is worried about this or demands you for ur visa.. please ask him to go to the EMPLOYER CHECKING SERVICE get the update from HO..

Read the following wording which i extracted from HO website

Frequently Asked Questions
What is my immigration status while my application is being decided?
CloseIf you make an application before your authorised stay ends, your existing immigration status will continue until your application is decided, even if the decision is not made until after the end of your permitted stay. If your existing visa or other permission to stay here allows you to work, you can continue to do so until your case is decided.


All the best.
