Secondary job with a Tier-2 Visa

Post by dexterous » Mon Oct 10, 2011 11:46 am

Just checking if it is legal to have a secondary job while working for my Tier-2 Visa sponsor as well.

I know I am required to work for the company that sponsored my visa but say I am looking for an extra source of income via a part-time weekend job with another employer can I do it?

You are permitted to do a supplementary job in the same sector and at the same level, for up to 20 hours per week. Please refer to the guidance.

Thanks Sage Lucapooka, I guess I would have to let go of the secondary job then since it doesn't qualify based on what you said.

Cheers.
