Tier 2 Extension Due - Late Notification Salary Increase

[kamlesh_chauhan2404]

Hi All,

Can you please tell where I can find the minimum and maximum salary Slab for Tier 2 General VISA and is it any restriction if employer is increasing the salary within that Slab ( not changing any position).

Thanks

Useful to state the SOC you are on as it is not a broad Tier 2 General salary range, it is SOC specific!!!

Thanks for your reply,

Surely you know what your SOC is?? This would have been on your COS and part of your visa application. Or ask your employer.

Thanks

I would Like to know is there is any maximum limit that Employer can offer any obligation on max limit.

No there is not. But obviously if is is so far reaching and above the level of your SOC and job/responsibilities, HO might want to investigate.

Sorry for posting this here but this is a general question even though it would help me with my other question in its own thread.

Tier2 Extension Page 24 point 83 mentions that £30,000 or the appropriate rate for the job,
whichever is the higher. So 30K is a minimum for an extension, in your opinion, does a salary of 36K for an SoC code (whose experienced person salary is £24K, SoC 2137, previously I believe it was £26K if I remember correctly) is far reaching for Tier 2 extension even though salary increments have been part of annual reviews?

It really depends on what it is exactly that you do and your job title is on whether it is shortage occupation or not. It is not up to you to decide this. For it to be shortage occupation, it is only the very specific industry and jobs listed in Appendix K.

Hi,
I think Below job description does not comes under Shortage occupation , In this case fees application is £704 for VISA extension right ?
