Is my T2G visa still valid after getting partner visa

Post by mrmustard » Sun Jul 20, 2014 10:11 am

I had a t2g visa valid until jan 2016. I am still with the same employer.

Some time ago the company was not going good so I was scared to be sacked so I got a partner visa with my british partner. Now however, the company is doing good but it is my relationship that is not well. If we break up, does someone know if my old visa is still valid or if I need to get a new t2g from my employer?

Many thanks!

Your previous Tier 2 was superseded by your partnership visa. If the relationship deteriorates and breaks down, you will need to apply for a new visa (Tier 2 or otherwise). This would reset any ILR clock (except for 10 years long residence).
