Tier 2 expiring on 20 Aug 2010 & planning to apply for t

Post by psappuin » Fri Jul 09, 2010 7:39 pm

Hello

I am on a tier2 WP and my visa is expiring on 20 Aug 2010. I do qualify for tier1 and planning to apply.

I am a bit confused and need some pointer on the following:

1. How much time will the Home Office take to revert back with a decision of granting me a visa or rejection?

2. If they reject the visa and revert back after 20 Aug 2010, will my current employer be able to extend my tier 2 visa? I am bit scared if the home office does not allows me to file an extension for the tier 2 post 20 Aug. In that case I will have to leave UK which I cannot afford atleast till Nov.

I have tried the online appointment but there are no date, tried calling few agents as well. Also, I need to apply before 19 July because the rules are again changing and I will not qualify then :-(

Any pointer will be appriciated.
