Work Permit Sponsors needed

Post by candy_d » Thu May 14, 2015 7:32 pm

Hello All,

I am in urgent need of some guidance regarding the work VISA sponsorship.

I am a Tier 2 ICT dependent and currently employed in UK as a software developer. My husband who works in a different company has his work about to be completed and is asked to move back to India in 2-3 months. However the visa is valid for next 1 year.

How can I get some company to sponsor me for a Work Visa so that I can continue to work here. Never looked into this option before so I dont know how this sponsorship works. Are there any agencies/companies that can sponsor me so that I can obtain a work visa or change my current one. Any pointers?

Regards,
Candy_D

You have to find an employer to sponsor you. They will then need to conduct an RLMT to prove there is not a settled worker who could do the job. Provided you pass that, you would apply for a Tier 2 General from your home country.
