1. U need to be very careful in this situation
2. U have already received the approval letter from HO which means that they know that u left the old job and will start a new one.
3. U old work permit wud have been canceleld bu UKBA as they have given u a new letter
4. In u situation i wud recommend to get in touch with HO and clarify that.
5. Wen the old work permit gets cancelled u need to apply for the new job within 28 days or u leave will be curtailed.
6. U have not apply for the new FLR as well so which means that u have not used the new approval letter.

Get in touch with HO and clarify that or ask u first employer to check that.

Under tier 2, its just the certificate of sponsorship number thats provided to apply for FLR. So when the new employer gets this and give it to the employee, does it mean that the HO assume the previous job is finished? what happens if there is few months overlap, for example someone just worked from home at night in the previous job for 1/2 months along with the new job and then finish it?
