Hi Everyone,
I was told I could start in my new role while I waited for my new Tier 2 visa, as long as I applied before my previous one expried (Oct 10).
However, HR at my new position is not letting me start work until I have my new BRP. I had my biometrics taken on Oct 3, but the window is 8 weeks.
So, I thought in the meantime I could continue working for my previous sponsor. But my CAS was dated October 1. After doing some research, I now think I cannot work for my previous employer becuase my CAS date has passed and in 3 days my previous visa will expire.
Can anyone clarify if I can continue working for my previous employer while I wait for my new Tier 2 visa?
Also, for peace of mind, is it true that you are not allowed to travel if you have applied for a new visa? I waited until I was back from my travels (mid-september) to apply-- which is why this has caused such a problem. I just want validation that I had to wait until I was back before applying...
Any advice is most appreciated.
