Switch from Tier 2 ICT to PBS - Skilled worker (new employer)

[sid05]

I am working in the UK on a Tier 2 ICT visa and I was looking out for jobs in the UK for a while. Recently I have been offered a full time job and they are ready to provide COS, so here are my questions:

1. I want to use the COS for applying to PBS (Skilled worker visa), but will I be able to do so before resigning from my current job?
2. Can I be serving notice period in my current company, while the PBS application is in progress?
3. Can I travel outside UK while the PBS application is in progress?
4. Most importantly, in terms of documentation, what changes when I convert to a Skilled worker visa; i.e. do I get a new BRP? or will I have to get stamping on my passport?

1. Yes.

2. Yes.

3. No.

4. Yes you get a new br card.

Thanks for the answers CR001!

Will the existing BRP (Tier 2 ICT) be valid till I get the new one (Skilled Worker)? Once I resign from the current company, will the existing BRP not be void?

Yes.

No. Your ICT visa ceases if a new visa is approved.
