I have heard few news that they changing the policy on settelment for Tier1 and Tier2.

Was curious would any changes would apply on people already in UK or only on new commers?

Where did you hear this from?

Is your question based on a rumour or on fact?

When and if any changes are made, the actual changes will be disclosed by UKBA. In the interim, no one can know for sure who will be affected until after this your "supposed" change occurs.

I suggest you keep checking the UKBA website for any new developments and not to rely on hearsay.

Kind Regards

This is just my opinion, but I don't think the "proposed change" will affect migrants already in the UK. In addition, from what I gathered, it seems the "proposed change" may apply to only new Tier 2 migrants coming in.

Like I said, I don't know for sure, but that's my personal opinion.

Just relax and hopefully everything works out well

There's no point worryiing about something that hasn't happened yet.

Kind Regards

I understand your concern, but worrying about it won't change it. The rule may be passed eventually if the government feels it is the right thing to do.

All we can do is to hope for the best.

Kind Regards

If I correctly undestand from this link http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... -2-5-1-elr
people who will apply for extension of their Tier 1 after 6 April 2012 will be requested to retake English tests. What do you think?

Thanks

I thought for T1 extension, above new requirements do not apply if English language points were awarded from UK qualification on the initial application.

Can any senior members clarify this.

I assume this is for T1 extensions? :

Claiming points
131. An applicant meets the English
language requirement, without the need to
provide evidence, if he/she was last given
permission to stay in the United Kingdom:
• under Tier 1 (General) and is applying for
an extension of leave to remain; or
• as a Highly Skilled Migrant Programme
participant under the Immigration Rules
which came into force on 5 December
2006 and is applying for an extension of
leave to remain under a Tier 1 category.
