New Tier 2 Visa Vignette???

Post by plazog » Sun Jun 07, 2020 4:11 am

Hello everyone!
My Tier 2 visa vignette expired in Dec 2019 before I was able to travel to UK. I had to serve my current employer for 3 months after resignation as per the contract. After 3 months of mandatory service, COVID-19 locked everything and I still can't travel. When and how do I get new vignette? The UK GOV site does not specifically guide...or I have missed it somewhere.
Thank you for the help.

If your 30 day visa to work, study or join family has expired
If your 30 day visa to travel to the UK for work, study or to join family has expired, or is about to expire, you can request a replacement visa with revised validity dates free of charge until the end of this year.

To make a request, contact the Coronavirus Immigration Help Centre. You’ll need to include your name, nationality, date of birth and your GWF reference number with ‘REPLACEMENT 30 DAY VISA’ in the subject line. If you’ve already contacted us about this, please let us know in your email.

You’ll be contacted when our VACs reopen to arrange for a replacement visa to be endorsed in your passport.

You will not be penalised for being unable collect your BRP while coronavirus measures are in place.

This process will be in place until the end of 2020.
