Tier 2 - Changing Employers

Post by rongshengcai315 » Fri Jul 21, 2017 11:59 am

Hello, I got the same question now. I also want to change my job now. I have already got the new COS. The question is how and where I can apply for the new T2 visa. Thanks

You can apply on person at a premium centre or by post.

It is an online form.

Thanks for your answer. On the website, I can only find the link to switch into T2 visa or extend the visa.

I also checked the T2 visa policy guidance provided by home office, on page 7, it also said any Tier 2 main applicant can switching into Tier 2 (general). I don’t know why they provided different information.

Do you think when I apply for the visa, I can do it though the switching link?

Thank you very much.
