Maintenance funds for Tier 2 General

Post by natalisain » Thu May 08, 2014 11:02 am

Hi

I have a query regarding the requirement of £900 in the bank account at all the times as a proof of maintenance.
Is it £900 at the end of the day ?

As I have just less than £900 on only one day but at the close of the same day the balance is again more than £900.
Will this be an issue?

Thanks
Regards
Natalie

If you're making an in-country switch from Tier-2 ICT to Tier-2 general visa, then you are not required to provide any maintenance fund details as per the UKBA rules.

Hi t2ict

Thanks for the reply. Yes I am making switch from within UK. I am working in UK from past 4 years.

How will I score 10 points for maintainence?
As my sponsor has said 'No' on Cos for sponsoring funds?

Thanks
Regards
Natalie

Refer page no. 32 & section 154 of the below Tier-2 policy guidance document:

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... _04-14.pdf

The first section of 154 applies to you and it says '10 points' will be awarded automatically, if you are already in the UK with a leave to remain status in any of the Tier-2 skilled worker visa.

Hope, this helps you.
