1) when I apply for tier 2, can I apply with my current salary £18k (as codes of practice indicates that for part 2 qualified accountant minimum salary is £17k)?

So you can say they are processing August 2012 Applications. We applied 27 July!!! No word yet... although, i cannot say that the HR at my school is the ...

Dear All, 1. Would I be allowed entry (to the UK) as at the time of my return I would only have 6/7 months left for ILR eligibility. I have heard (not sure though) that people are randomly refused entry when they are on PSW but not doing anything significant in the UK, and specially when people are...

Hi there, I am offered a new job and the employer is willing to sponsor my Tier 2 visa. I am presently on a Tier 2 general visa and wanted to know how much time does it generally take from the date of submission. Also, can I continue working at my old employer till the time I get my new visa. Thank...
I am not 100% sure, but it could be that waiting for the old visa to expire would start the 12 month cooling off period. Additionally, your sponsor would need to apply for a restricted CoS. But please seek more expert advice....
I am in a strange position. I handed in my notice and left my jb at the end of August. On my BRP it says expiry Aug 2014, so it is not expiring just yet. My future employer has been waiting sine May for their sponsorship. They have readvertised my job twice but cannot find other Physics teachers wit...
