Dear All,

I am working as IT assistant for a company for more then 15 months, My job role is much similar to 3131 Which is NQF level 4. Is that acceptable for Switching from PSW to Tier 2 Sponsor application.

Thanks

From the policy guidance

66. If you are applying to work in the UK the Certificate of Sponsorship must confirm that the
job is at NQF level 6 (or the equivalent in Scotland) as stated in the codes of practice or
in a creative sector occupation skilled to NQF level 4 (or the equivalent in Scotland) as
listed in the Tier 2 & 5 Sponsor Guidance, or the job is at NQF level 4 and appears on the
list of shortage occupations. This does not mean that you must be educated to this level,
it means that the job is at that level. The Certificate of Sponsorship must also confirm that
you will be paid at or above the appropriate rate for the job. These requirements are set
out in the codes of practice on our www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/business-sponsors/points/
Tier 2 Policy Guidance (Version 07/2013) - Page 17 of 59
sponsoringmigrants/employingmigrants/codesofpractice/ and the Tier 2 & 5 Sponsor
Guidance at http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... dsponsors/
