New COS and cooling off

Post by vishy002 » Mon May 19, 2014 6:15 pm

Hi Manci,

I was in UK from Jan 2012 till April 2014 under a tier 2 ICT long term Visa with family. My current COS was supposed to be valid till 30th Sep 2014 and current visa is valid through Oct 2014. However Since I returned back home, my COS was cancelled.
I now have a travel proposed for a 'new' assignment back to UK. I need to urgently understand what are my options to travel back?

1- If my COS is cancelled , does it mean i cannot use the Visa that was issued on that COS for my travel and have to serve a cooling off?
2- Can I still get a new COS issued and travel back on the same Visa ? If not, can a new Visa be issued again under a new COS?
3- If iam performing a similar role ( as in my previous COS) , can a new COS/Visa still be issued ?
4- Can the visa type be changed ( Tier 2 ICT to Tier 2 general-same employer) and travel be possible?

Request your urgent help.

in Apr 14 when you finished working for your sponsor what exactly happened? Did they inform the HO that they were no longer sponsoring you and was your visa curtailed?
