ICT Tier 2 transfer to Tier1

Post by sachin123 » Wed Aug 22, 2012 1:19 pm

HI

I have a ICT tier 2 visa issued on May' 10 expiring in May'13, and wanted to know if I can convert to Tier 1 general visa and be eligible for ILR eventually.

Thank you for your responses

No. That category of Tier 1 no longer exists at the entry level. Existing holders can continue to extend but there are no new applications permitted.

Thank you, is there any other way where I can be eligible for ILR.

Please advise

You'll have to look on the UKBA site to see if there are any categories that you are eligible for, and then complete the necessary residence period that leads to ILR for that category,
