Re: Consultancy is stopping my job offer due to Tier 2(G) Vi

And the obvious reason that the consultency does not want you to have the job is they lose out on the deal.

Re: RLMT Best vs Only

What is your current immigration status? As for RLMT being the best candidate is not sufficient if there is a settled worker who meets the requirement of the role. RLMT is not really examined at the issue of the COS by HO. They send out officers to vist the company from timr to timr to check that th...

Re: Urgent advice needed - 15 days left on visa

Get your current company to issue a COS for your extention as if there were no change in circumstances. Until the merger / takeover is confirmed by UKVI the licence remains valid and active. As both companies hold a licence thar will happen at the confirmation of merger / takeover is that your exist...

Re: Consultancy is stopping my job offer due to Tier 2(G) Vi

Unless your prospective new employer has a tier2 licence they can not employ you.
I am guessing you work for company that gets you contract work and you are employed by them on a basic salary?
Your current visa only allows you to work for your current employer. It is not a transferable document.

Re: Same employer- senior role in a different division

There are something's that need to be considered Is it the exact same role but just paid better? Then in that case it is essentially no different to the role on the original COS so no issues. If it is a new role with management responsibly etc then that is possibly a different SOC. In that case that...

Re: Switching frm Tier1 General dependent to Tier 2 General

You can only be sponsored using a restricted COS which has to be applied for separately. Your sponsor will not have them in the bank. The other isssue is that you can't switch in country so would have to return home. You can not hold concurrent visas, so by moving to tier2 you automatically cease to...

If your wife flys back and her Sponsor tells UKVI that she is no longer in the UK there is every chance UKVI will not actually issue a curtailment letter. If they check the flight details for her and she is gone they just put a block on re-entry. If the casewoker is smart he will check your details ...
