Hi

You need unrestricted CoS and it can be assigned to you by your employer anytime if they have allocation. They must also ensure they did RLMT inline with HO guidance before assigning one.

Those who apply Tier 2 from outside the UK need restricted CoS

Hope this answers your query.

if it is an extension, i.e your SOC code remains the same, the employer doesn't need to do an RLMT.
