Tier 2 Settlement

Dear members, could you please clerify the followings?

Tier 2 Policy Guidance 4/2016
Part 10: rule 265 page 61

265.You will be exempt from the minimum earnings threshold if any of the following apply to you:

 Your continuous 5 year period includes all or part of a grant of leave as a qualifying work permit holder, or as a Tier 2 migrant where your Certificate of Sponsorship was assigned before 6 April 2011;

 You have been employed in a job:
 that appears on the Shortage Occupation List in Appendix K, or has appeared on that list during any time you were being sponsored to do that job during the last 6 years; .............


If the part of time of 5 years most recent leave is formed by the time spent on the cos which was issued before April 2011, isnt the applicant exempted from £35k income criteria?

Why have you started another topic? Asking the same question in a different topic won't change the answer.

Please continue in your other topic where you are already getting advice.
