There is no separate category for "switching to new employer" it comes under "Extension"samdav7 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2017 9:05 pmHi,
I have a new CoS under Tier 2 and applying within the UK. In the online application form, there is no option to click as 'switching to new employer'.
More importantly, when I enter the CoS number it says "We have not been able to verify this CoS reference number at this time. It may be because it was entered incorrectly, make sure it exactly matches your Certificate of Sponsorship.
You may continue with your application but it is likely to be refused if you do not provide a valid CoS reference number."
Despite trying to enter the CoS number, it remarks the same. I contacted the HR and they reported this has happened to some of their candidates recently and went through. But, for me after several attempts, it is still showing the above information.
While I do not want to proceed to risk refusal of my application, what else should I do???
Any suggestions????
Thanks in advance!
You cannot get appointment anytime soon.samdav7 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2017 11:14 pmHi Makky,
Thanks for the reply!
I had asked my HR and they have reported that similar glitch happened to one of their employees earlier this week and after couple of attempts, it was sorted out.
I have been trying to re-enter the CoS issued by HR from the PDF document several times, but in vain so far. HR reported that CoS is indeed assigned and its saying the same in the CoS letter. I also tried with a new application form but the issue still persists.
I will try logging to the form tomorrow morning and check for any changes, if still persists I will not proceed and keep the forum posted of developments.
What I am not sure is, is this because of my existing CoS under my last employer is still active??? My last employer HR had notified the UKBA only last Friday. So, I am not sure if this is interfering with it???
I have left the job and my 60 day gap is due in 2 weeks. I am therefor planning to submit using Premium Service but not unsure as of now about the earliest available date for appointment while I am open to any location to submit.
As I said before , ask HR to login to Home office system and download the COS. If it says "assigned and active" on their system then take a screenshot. That's enoughThanks for the reply!
I’m not sure how to validate the CoS unless HR does that from the Home Office and provides me that evidence and I can enclose with my application.
Yes, Right now if you check the earliest would be like mid of Jan 2018.Do you mean to say that there won’t be any dates sooner than 2 weeks for Premuim processing?
Also, can you clarify this as below?? I didn’t get it, I’m sorry.
The 60 days unemployment rule will be removed post 11th Jan 2018. But that owuld applicable for those whose COS is assigned after this date.“Remember if the COS is assigned after 11th Jan 2018 then this 60 days gap will not applicable to you as its being removed.”
Thanks for confirming!ravisb_2014 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 18, 2017 11:10 amYes, You don't need prove your english requirement and maintenance while extending your T2G visa.
To my knowledge they don't send an acknowledgement letter, have you downloaded the Biometric Enrolment Letter and enrolled your biometric information in the post office? You need to do it within 15 working days from the date you submitted your application online.samdav7 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2018 3:31 amHi all,
Royal Mail reported it was directed and my documents were delivered on 21/12/2017 and the Royal Mail tracking says the same.
But I haven’t so far received any information from Home Office including no acknowledgement letter. I was told that they will send the letter within 20 working days. When I phoned them they aren’t sure why there is a delay.
Has anyone faced this issue?
Many applicants, across all visa categories often do not receive acknowledgement letters.
Thanks! cheers..

2. Did you get the new BRP card separately on 29th Jan evening? Can you share the Courier name is it UPS, DX or Royal Mail and also from Tracking number you can check the from address city. Please can you send me those details.
Thanks for your help, can you confirm exactly the name of the courier who delivered the new BRP card. Do you have any from address from where the BRP was sent. If you have the courier tracking reference you can check in the courier website and find out from where the item was shipped.samdav7 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 08, 2018 1:09 amAnswer: I received new BRP in same evenin by another courier service.
