SOC code change for new job - Tier 2 general

Post by Shah1698 » Tue Apr 11, 2017 10:36 am

Hi experts,

I have a query regarding SOC code change

I am on Tier 2 general at the moment. My current SOC code is - 2137 - Web design and development professionals, £24k salary

I have got new job offer (from new sponsor) with different SOC code - 2136 - Programmers and software development professionals, £36k salary

Is it going to be any issue with my visa application due to SOC code change or significant pay raise?

Your help is very much appreciated.

There should be no problem in changing SOC codes as long as you meet the vacancy criteria, and sponsor has met all the conditions of genuine vacancy!
