hi Everone,

we received negative reply from home office, they refused COS allocation on the basis of that my employer got cos allocation last time but he didn't use, so why we need COS allocation again give reason?

I m also on the same boat ,
HR applied restricted n unrestricted cos, as we had confused which one to use, ( now it's clear that we need unrestricted as I m on tier 1 visa)
Got restricted cos on 11 May, n unrestricted rejected on 26 th may, now HR on holiday so don't know what to do?

Hi,

Do you have any updates on this.... Did you guys manage to get a COS allocation?.

How much time it took?. Also for Tier 2 ICT long term we did not get the option of restricted or unrestricted, where does this option come?

Kind Regards,
Tahir Khan
