Right to work as dr

Post by doctor4u » Wed Aug 16, 2023 1:18 pm

Hi,
I have query as well. I applied for skilled worker visa and being a doctor I was in tier 2 visa previously. Recently when I called solicitor and also home office about working while my visa is in process. She/he mentioned we can work as many no of hours due to covid relaxation rules till 27th August and after that it has to be only 20 hours per week. Now that iam waiting for the skilled worker visa to come through , as even in right to work it says when we enter all our details we can work for our current sponsor who is health education england and also do additional work. Is this right ?

You are allowed to work for 20 hours per week for another employer as long as the role performed ie medical doctor is the same for the additional hours. The COVID rules were a bit more relaxed in that you could work for more hours and in a general health provision role.
