Tier2 expiring, switching employers, stupid ?'s, please help

Post by mummy2a&b » Tue Jul 09, 2013 10:43 am

Hi everyone!
I am having some Tier 2 issues and looking to all of you for your expertise!

Ok, here is my situation. I have a Tier 2 visa, with 3 dependents. My visa is due for renewal in Sept 2013.

Here's the tricky part. I may be switching employers soon-before or about the same time of my current visa expiry.

So, how should I proceed? Do I renew with current employer then do a switch? Or do I wait until new employer gives me the CoS (before Sept) and do a new visa application then?

How would you recommend proceeding? Obviously, with a family of four, whichever is the cheaper option would be best for me :)

And I am not friends with the UKBA website-what form would I use to switch employers? Is there a cost involved when switching from one employer to the next?

Thanks for your help! I would need progress with getting my visa rightaway, so if you can advise me which direction to take, please let me know as soon as possible. Many thanks friends!

I am in the same boat , need info on switching employers.
My new employer would be happy to provide me employment letter but more or less no support in applying visa . :roll:
