PSW to Tier 2 General. NQF, Sponsorship, CoS & Maintanen

Not 100% sure, but i vaguely remember that you shouldn't have more than 5% shares of the company you are working in. Not sure what the rules are if it is a different company.

Hi, If my memory serves me right, the Maintenance rule of holding £800 for a period of 90 days was not applicable to any applicants who were switching from PSW to tier 2 provided that they worked for at least 6 months preceding the application date with the same employer. I went through the tier 2 ...

Re: Urgent! Debit card fraud after Visa application sent

Just out of curiosity, when the payment was deducted from the account by credit/debit card, what did it show on the Bank Account Transaction? The application was posted on Friday.

Thanks a lot for the response! This just makes me feel so much more better. As a lot of people keep saying so many scary stories, and I guess I will just have to first find a company that's in the Sponsor register or find someone who is willing to :) Thanks again. Will do my best to post updates on ...
