Hi all, I received my certificate of sponsorship, but I haven't applied for my Tier 2 General visa yet because I've had to wait quite a while to get official bank statements from my bank. I realized that HR put my work start date as 15 February 2018; however, by the time I got my CoS it was well pa...
Hi, I am in the process of changing employers and I got a new CoS issued by my future employer. They would like me to join earlier but I have a 3 month notice and it is out of the question for me to negotiate with my current employer before receiving my new tier 2 visa. So this takes me to asking t...

1. If you apply for administrative review they use the same information and documents provided to them so I don't think your proposal to change salary or change job title could work 2. You need a new CoS and you need to leave the country if your legal leave has expired. As you will be applying from...
Hey, I just got my refusal letter from home office saying that my application for T2 general visa has been refused due to salary problem . So basically, I tried to switch my T4 student visa to T2 general visa on Jan 20, and got rejected on Feb 27, and today I just got the letter. My T4 student visa...
Many thanks. very helpful. So if the start date on my COS is 10th June I can apply for my visa on 11th March - 15th March. As soon as I get it via premium processing I give notice same day and can start working with new employer from 15th June to 20th June. Am I thinking right? Not sure how easy/di...

Thank you UKLL They said in the job advert that they would consider applications from Band 5 (less qualified) nurses like me. That’s why I applied for the job. Shouldn’t this be enough? It's a tricky one isn't it? The salary stated on the CoS (Band 5 salary) will be different from the job advert (B...
Hello everyone I am currently in the UK working under a Tier 2 visa and had recently a job offer, to be hired as a Band 5 nurse (payband £22,128-£28,746) by another employer. The payband is appropriate as it will be a training post, however the job was advertised as a Band 6 job (payband £30,549 to...

Hi All, Currently I am on Tier 2 general visa with SOC code 2137. I also have experience in a technology which falls under different SOC code and want to switch to a new employer/sponsor with different SOC code. 1. Since my new employer is not aware of the old SOC code or job profile how this could...
Hi there, My name is Halim Currently, I am working as an architectural assistant. My current visa is Tier 5 (Exchange Leave to Enter) and it will be expired in the middle of September 2018. I have now been working here for nearly 2years under Tier 5 Visa. So I have a few question need to ask : 1. D...
Many thanks. very helpful. Do I have to start on the start date stated on the COS? My new employer is happy to wait for 1 month. So if start date is 1st June, they are happy to wait till 1st July. Will that be ok? The problem with notice period is that , the current employer if they are unhappy can...
Yesterday I posted the above query. After carefully reading various notes, I think the following error has happened: When I applied in 2015, my employer said on CoS that labour market test has been done and the explanation given was that since I already worked with them and I was switching from Tie...

I am a Registered Nurse with a job offer from a licensed sponsor. Wage is 44,000 The employer applied for a CoS on December 17 but did not complete the RLMT correctly so it was rejected. They have now applied again February after completing the RLMT, This has also been rejected, or rather states "U...
Back to Australia is not practical, and down right absurd. This is not HO's concern to be honest. I know, but still... fair go and all that. I am on leave without pay. However recent payslips may also be a problem. Though my company would be happy to go the Tier 2 (General) path as well. I also hav...
Hello, Please I need to clarify something. CoS approved on 12th February to be used by 12th May 2018, Start date on CoS is 1st March 2018. From the way things are now I will be applying for visa around the 1st week of march. Will this be a problem being that CoS is to start on the 1st of March. I w...
They specifically said that since I have been issued another COS by another company, that means I am saying that I no longer wish to work for my current employer. So I can't work for my current employer neither can I work for my prospective employer. In another paragraph they said that they have in...
