Thanks, @DrUni. It's still going on. I'll update once I have any outcome.

I have also asked my query but it is urgent and not sure if someone can reply on a weekend.

Best of luck for your application.

Hi everyone, I recently applied for GTV route shifting from Skilled worker (3 yrs) within UK. While I was waiting for stage 1 endorsement, I applied for my dependents' visa extension (as they wanted to show their employer) and also for their TLS contact appointment. I later applied for my stage 2 ...

Hi Dr Uni,

My stage 1 took 1 month and stage 2 is still going on. Hope it helps.

Hi,

It took me one week to get email from home office that they sent it to BA and then 3 more weeks to get the final endorsement email. All this happened in last one month. Hope that helps.

Best wishes,

Hi, Requesting anyone having some knowledge on this to respond please. Seems like GTV expertise is scarce. Repeating my query for some reply while hoping for some response- "I entered on SKW in June 2022 (Visa expiring in March 2025). I'm applying for GTV now and intend to apply for ILR when ...

Dear team, I have read replies from CR001, Simba and others in other posts. These helped me in understanding some more things but I got stuck now and need your help for further understanding. I'm rephrasing my query for more clarity. I entered on SKW in June 2022 (Visa expiring in March 2025). I'm ...

Dear Experts, I'm in a tricky situation that requires GTV, ILR and IHS refund expertise. My current 3-year Skilled Worker Visa expires on 27-Mar-25. I entered UK first time on 15-Jun-22 along with my two dependents. I'll be switching to GTV (from skilled worker visa) with endorsement from British ...
