Experienced Salary Confusion

Post by irfanzafar » Sun Jun 18, 2017 12:42 am

Dear all,

My SOC code is 2135 (Data Analyst) issued in Oct-2014 and I am switching employer (from NHS to NHS) in next 2 weeks, current salary threshold for 2135 is increased from £33000 to £34700 after Apr-2017 as an experienced worker. Could you please suggest that which one is applicable as my initial Tier-2 visa was issued before Nov-2016?

"Salary Thresholds

The minimum salary threshold for Tier 2 applications is increasing as outlined in the table below. For experienced workers, there is an increase from £25,000 to £30,000 from 6 April 2017. This new salary threshold will only affect those making a new application under Tier 2 (General) for the first time. Those already in Tier 2 or applying for extensions or change of employer before this date will not be affected."

Thanks a lot for your help.
