Hi - quick query - If the business is not doing well is it possible to switch from Tier 1 Entrepreneur to Tier 2 visa if you find employment with an eligible employer who is willing to sponsor your Tier 2.

thilina098, hope you have applied for tier 2, I don't think it will effect, I have also think that when you are director of the company, I think at the same time you can not apply to tier 2, you must have resigned from directorship...But don't know need some guidance from seniors.
2- My application for tier 1 entrepreneur visa is with UKBA still waiting, I am thinking, If any company interested to give me sponsored job, can I apply for tier 2 visa before my tier 1 entrepreneur visa result comes. and how please guide me.
thanks
regards.
