Members are reminded that this topic is ONLY for JANUARY 2020 RCoS information and outcome.

DO NOT POST Any reference to your potential sponsor, you will have your forum access restricted if you do.

Please read the posts BEFORE asking about how to calculate points and also see post below with the points table first. S

DO NOT post repetitive low value posts, such "Any update anyone", "still waiting" etc. They will be removed. When members have an update, I am sure they will post one.

DO NOT post visa application process questions. Start your own topic for that if you are lucky enough to get RCoS approval.

I monitor this thread many times a day, so please be aware of the above when you post.

With regards to the point calculation,
I think Shortage occupation has 320 points as per the latest October home office notification.

Hi all, For my spouse's T2G case, got an update from employer yesterday that the RCoS has been allocated in their SMS yesterday afternoon only, however they are facing some issues while assigning (don't know of the exact details). One reason I could think off might be causing this is that they had already allocated an unrestricted CoS with wrong type (Switching Immigration category) to my spouse and that might still be hanging there in "ASSIGNED" status and which was meant to be "WITHDRAWN" as later they realised that it is a RCoS case instead.

They already have all the relevant / personal details for my spouse. What else could have possibly gone wrong? Has anyone seen this kind of issue in the past?

Hi,

Has anyone experienced issues in getting RCOS assigned after it has been approved? My spouse is yet to hear from the employer on this and it has been pending for a while.
