Tier 2 changing jobs in different field

[cvision]

Hello,

I am currently on Tier 2 General visa in the Uk, since past 2 years now, and my permit is expiring next year Jan. Due to uncertainty of my current workplace, I am looking to change my job and move to other company. I wanted to change my work field as well. So if I get a job and apply for Tier 2 visa extension, would it be alright if I get low salary job which is less then £30k. However, I understand if I do apply for the same field job, at the time of extension I have to show salary above £30k.

Please could anyone advise me on this matter?

Thanking you for your time.

What is the SOC for the job if you switch to another sponsor??

[cvision]

It is 2133 IT specialist managers for which New entrant salary is £27,400.

Why do you think you qualify as a 'new entrant' salary??

What is your 'current work field'??

[cvision]

Because I have not worked as any of those job titles mentioned under that SOC code. I am currently working as a developer.

New entrant salary is ONLY relevant to very specific circumstances.

How old are you?

[cvision]

25 yrs.

When do you turn 26?

Have you already got a new sponsor who has a UCoS to assign??

Has the full RLMT process been done?

[cvision]

When do you turn 26? -- in November

Have you already got a new sponsor who has a UCoS to assign?? -- no Not yet

Has the full RLMT process been done? - I have to still apply to get the job.. thought to make sure that I actually could apply as a new entrant.

[CR001]

Once you turn 26 you won't qualify for new entrant salary.

[cvision]

Once you turn 26 you won't qualify for new entrant salary. -- SO to apply as a new Entrant, I will have to get the job before november..

[CR001]

Ideally yes. RLMT is a minimum of 28 days before your can be offered the job and a UCoS assigned.

[cvision]

Ideally yes. RLMT is a minimum of 28 days before your can be offered the job and a UCoS assigned.--Thank you ever so much for your advice and time.

Hello,

I wanted to ask, if I stay with the same company, and apply for Tier 2 extension under these circumstances:
- SOC code is changed, and will paid the salary of an experienced worker with the changed SOC

- The new SOC code job salary is lower than my previous experienced worker SOC code salary. Will that be an issue?

- Since the new job falls under shortage occupation list, I am excempt from RLMT, is that correct?

- If everything falls without any issue, I should apply as a new Tier 2 applicant?

Thanking you for your time and advice.
