Multiple filing of tier 2 visa by different employers

Post by marToUK » Sun Jan 05, 2014 2:37 pm

Hello All,

Can someone please let me know if there can be multiple filings of a tier 2 general visa at the same time?

I found 2 employers and both are saying they will be filing a tier 2 general visa for me. I don't want to say no to anyone of them as there is a chance that the employer I chose may postpone my job offer in UK and I will be losing the other employer as I decline their offer. So, I thought I will say yes to both the employers and let them file a visa for me, and then chose one of them for my employment and then pay the other employer as per the offer letter what all expenses he incurred becasue of me.

Can someone please let me know is it ok if two employers file a visa each other for an entry to UK?

Your suggestions will be really helpful to me. Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
AK

Check that the prospective employers are T2G licenced sponsors.

If they are, they would be assigning a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) to you, not "filing a visa", and you can only have one live CoS at any one time.
