Need Advice please

Hi All,

I have British citizenship.
My wife just received extension on ICT visa. We are thinking of applying FLR (M) for her, but not sure how to go about it.

Should she apply for FLR (M) and then resign?
I think the moment FLR (M) is granted, her ICT visa will be void.
If she resigns, not sure if employer will make her serve notice period of 3 months, is it still legal to work for company where the job role is under ambit of ICT and the employee no longer has ICT visa?
Can she continue for the same employer with FLR (M)? (She does not want to leave this job, hence we didnt apply for FLR (M) yet)

Thanks much for your advice

If she wishes to. There is no requirement in the Immigration rules that she must.

Correct.

If she resigns, not sure if employer will make her serve notice period of 3 months, is it still legal to work for company where the job role is under ambit of ICT and the employee no longer has ICT visa?

It is legal to work for ANY employer if you hold a valid visa. You are confusing issues here.

Can she continue for the same employer with FLR (M)? (She does not want to leave this job, hence we didnt apply for FLR (M) yet)

Yes, if her employer wishes to keep her on.

Note that simply because she changes visas does not mean her ICT employment becomes 'illegal' or 'obsolete'. She simply needs to inform them when she gets her new visa to prove her right to work.

For FLR(M), she will need English test and must meet the Financial requirement. She will have to pay the £1033 visa fee, £1000 IHS plus whatever UKCVAS service is chosen.

Thank you CR001.
This really helps.
