Need Help for Tier 2

Post by N Patel » Fri Oct 14, 2016 11:59 am

Dear

I had Tier - 2 Visa valid until August 2016. When I back from abroad sort visit in the year March 2015 at Heathrow Airport stopped me and they check my TOEIC certificate is not Valid due to TOEIC issue. Than they give me permission to appeal and I won appeal last month Sep 2016.

My question is can I apply for extension for visa or I need to apply as a fresh application ?
If I can apply for extension do I need to give again English Exam or not ?

Please help me because they give me time for stay until end on November 2016.

UK


If you were allowed to enter the country and your visa was valid till August 2016 why then haven't you been working with the visa?

Did UKVI stop you from working?
And what is the stand of your sponsor?
in order to extend your current visa or apply for a new one, you will need a new CoS from your employer.

I am not sure if your case will be treated as extension or as a fresh application because you have not used the Visa to work for like a year and a half which will also imply that you wouldnt have any tax record since March 2015.

I will allow more experienced members of the forum to help you.
I am not a lawyer and do not claim to be one. All my comments here are based on my opinions, experience and interpretation of the appropriate UKVI guidance documents and immigration rules.
