Hi, is it possible for two different employers to apply and get a tier 2 restricted cos for the same person at the same time?

No, because I had a CoS from employer A before and when employer B was trying to apply a CoS for me the system wouldn't allow so I had to ask employer A to cancel the CoS.

Tier 2 dependent can study freely at any institution but pay international fees.

Hi all, Royal Mail reported it was directed and my documents were delivered on 21/12/2017 and the Royal Mail tracking says the same. But I haven’t so far received any information from Home Office including no acknowledgement letter. I was told that they will send the letter within 20 working days. ...

I think the RLMT evidence should be stated on your actual CoS?

The next time you hear from them will the outcome of your application, which can take up to 8 weeks. I switched from Tier 4 to Tier 2 2 years ago but back to that time yo...
