Switch Tier 2 ICT to Tier 2 G with salary in excess of £152K

[matrix1781]

245 HB Requirements of Entry clearance for Tier G states as below

(g) The applicant must not have had entry clearance or leave to remain as a Tier 2 Migrant at any time during the 12 months immediately before the date of the application, unless the applicant:

(i) was not in the UK with leave as a Tier 2 Migrant during this period, and provides evidence to show this, or

(ii) will be paid a gross annual salary (as recorded by the Certificate of Sponsorship Checking Service entry, and including such allowances as are specified as acceptable for this purpose in paragraph 79 of Appendix A) of £152,100 or higher.



Does this mean that if I entered UK in jan 2012 under Tier 2 ICT LT staff and now have a job offer with salary more than £152K, I can change to the new employer under Tier 2 G?

Clutching at straws i know but I have a potential offer from a different employer, I want to see if there are any options for me to work for them?
