Manci...SOC Code-2231-Your thoughts..

Post by smiles345 » Sat Jan 04, 2014 9:00 am

My cousin sister has been offered Tier-2 COS as Band 3 Nurse , who is Nurse back home and completed degree in UK successfully. although her salary will £16200 and code of practice says the points will be awarded based on follwoing -:

Note: Nurses who enter Tier 2 can be paid at the Band 3 rate until they achieve full Nursing and
Midwifery Council registration, even though this is below the minimum Tier 2 (General) threshold of
£20,300. They must be sponsored to do a job as a fully qualified nurse and be paid Band 5 rate on
achieving full registration.


Nursing and midwifery is the regulated body for nurses and they require IELTS 7 in each module [acadamic] in order to get enrolled in to .
But the code of practice doesnt says any time frame of achieving the registration, if she works as Band 3 nurse for three years ,can she/employer extend further for three years as Band 3 Nurse? Can the employer says they require more time and needed further extension? really would like your thoughts on that please.

I don't know any more than what is in SOC 2010 and the T2 policy guidance - perhaps a nursing organisation can provide further clarification

Thanks for your kind reply manci. in SOC code 2010 it state people who are on supervised practice [Band 3 ] require to complete the training programme in 9months time else their leave will be curtailed. but SOC 2013 it doesnt states that . Do we follow what ti states in SOC 2013 , is the SOC code 2013 repetition of SOC 2010. her friends got visa for 3 years and do they curtail leave after 9months etcc. thanks in advance

the current (Oct 13) T2 guidance is silent about any time limit for obtaining full NMC registration. See p 48/49:

Hello
I need an advise that I got an offer from employer regarding band 3 supervised nurse sponsorship Tier 2 COS. I am nurse from back home and did bsc in nursing studies top up program level 6 from one of the University in UK, I have gone through UKBA codes of practice Pg:59-60

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... 4_V0_6.pdf


Note: Nurses who enter Tier 2 can be paid at the Band 3 rate until they achieve full Nursing and Midwifery Council registration, even though this is below the minimum Tier 2 (General) threshold of £20,500. They must be sponsored to do a job as a fully qualified nurse and be paid Band 5 rate on achieving full registration.

I am confused on the above mentioned statement, that weather should I have IELTS desired score for NMC registration that is 7 bands In all section to apply for band 3 supervised nurse sponsorship visa Tier 2 or it doesn't matter , AS THE EMPLOYER CHARGING ME COST FOR COS(certificate of sponsorship) TIER 2. I am not able to decide weather should I trust the employer or not.

Looking forward to URGENT advice and help

Many Thanks.
