Any rules changed for Switching to Tier2 General?

Post by hemauk » Sat Sep 16, 2017 7:03 am

Hi Manci,

Need your help in below clarification.

I'm planning to switch my visa from Tier 2 ICT to Tier 2 General. My Tier2 ICT was granted on March 13th 2011 which qualifies Tier2 (Intra-Company Transfer: Established Staff), under the Rules in place before 6April 2011.

I believe that I'm allowed to switch to Tier2 general but when I went through switch to Tier2 General rules of April 2017 no where it says that I can switch to Tier2 general and its not clear.

Could you Kindly clarify that switch is allowed or any rules changed as I couldn't get the clear picture.

If I'm allowed to switch from Tier2 ICT to Tier2 General do I need to pass the English language test?

Kindly help me its URGENT

Thank you
Hema

Are you changing sponsor?
(Casa, not CR001)
Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
