Tier 2- Dependent visa switch to General

Post by maxman » Sat May 31, 2014 6:11 am

Hello All,

I have a Tier2 ICT-long term visa (issued in 2014) and my wife has a dependent visa.

I wanted to know if she can switch from dependent to General Visa (assuming she has a job offer and a company is willing to sponsor the general visa). Is this switch allowed from Dependent to general visa as per UK visa laws?

Thanks in advance!
