Dear all,

First I want to express my appreciation for this forum, it helped me throughout the application process by reading every one's posts. Thanks for the management team and everyone who is helping each other here.

Now I am at stage 2, switching from tier 1 entrepreneur visa to tier 1 exceptional talent. I will apply in the UK, I am wondering whether someone has done the stage 2 application in country and except: Passport, police registration form, endorsement letter, printed application form, BRP card, I am wondering is there any other supporting documents we need to provide?

Many Thanks

Cindy

I have recently switched to T1 ET from T2 ICT within UK. Documents mentioned by you are all you need to submit.

Hi Bhor,

Many thanks for your reply, that's really helpful, I appreciate your help, and congratulations!!!

Best

Hi Bhor,

Sorry can I ask another two questions, the first is whether Home Office will notify you or give you a confirmation email once they received my original docs, the second is how long roughly is your stage 2 processing time.

Many Thanks

Can you share your Stage 1 timeline, please.
