In a word - Yes. The RLMT could not possibly be an open and fair recruitment if you had already been selected prior to completion of a valid RLMT. While it may not get picked up at application stage you also have to consider it may be found at a subsequent Home Office visit. It is a risk only your ...

Hi UKLL, Frontier Mole, Please advise, as after so many chases and email communication with my wife's HR, finally HR added the below information in the Sponsor Note also I've attached the screenshot herewith. Please can you suggest if it will suffice the requirements. We will be really thankful to ...

Legally you don't need to serve 6 months notice. It is not legally required and your current employer cannot force you to serve the notice period. In fact when you obtain your new visa your current employer cannot keep you anymore from the start date on the CoS, otherwise they are breaching the rule...

Strange situation to be in, why was your offer of employment cancelled? As the previous answer sets out you are unable to work for your current sponsor as of 31/03. You could work for your current Sponsor for 20 hours per week technically. The most sensible thing to do is to get your current Sponso...

My understanding is that the hours you work for your own hospital as a bank nurse count as overtime, rather than second employment, but I could be wrong. What does your payslip say? Hello. Thanks for replying. The tax code on my bank payslip is the same on my permanent post. Does this mean this is ...

Hi, I have found a new sponsor and they have finished the RLMT and issued a CoS. They have now advised me that they expect me to do the visa application myself rather than them doing it. Also that left me with a couple of urgent questions that I need answering to finalise my application: - Will I n...

Thanks for the reply UKLL, had a chat with the HR of my current employer, they say it is possible to cancel either of the visa after speaking to the legal team, just wanted to double check with you, is there a link from home office which explains the process for this scenario. Thanks again for the ...

Hi, My current Tier 2 visa expires in 3 months. My current employer has agreed to extend my visa. However, I now have a very good job offer from another company. The HR told me they do not have unrestricted COS to assign in their Sponsor Management System (SMS) and would have to submit an individua...

Apologies I made it absolutely no sense here. Actually, my question is can I be self-employed for 20 hours so that I can open an Ltd company and be a PAYE through that.

Tier 2 does not allow self-employment, full stop.

I am planning to finish my dissertation by mid July and will be able to get a letter f...
