Tier 2 visa extension- Multiple COS

Post by Mon_D » Sat May 30, 2020 1:51 am

Hi all, I am currently on a tier 2 (general) visa with my current leave expiring on 14th June. But my current employer gave me an extension for 1 (15th June-16th July) month for which they have assigned me a COS. I have already applied for that visa. But due to covid19 I doubt it will get processed before 16th July. In the meanwhile I have found another job (Starting date 17th July) and just today they have assigned me with a COS. What shall I do? Can I have two COS at once? Shall I withdraw the first application and apply for the second one? Thanks In advance for your help

Your current sponsor must withdraw the cos first before a new sponsor can assign one to you.

You can't have two CoS at the same time.

Hi, thank you for your response.
But my new employer has already assigned me a COS as the first visa application for 1 month has been applied online. What shall I do? I am really worried..
