Dear All,
Please can anyone guide me on the Visa duration for Tier 2 Gen. Should we apply for 3 years or 5 years ? will this in anyway influence HO ?

Hello, It get the URL with the Job ID for Jobcentre just do a print screen. Ensure that you scroll down and take screen shot of 2nd and 3rd pages if any. Also ensure that your employer has the date displayed on the computer before taking screen shot (this is how you can prove the date of the adverts...

sure thanks timbo88. Unfortunately for us, it seems like we have done everything right except NOT submitting the RLMT docs at the time of CoS application. our situation is very tricky as our current visa expires on 14th Sep so we have to vacate our home and leave the country ..sigh! and since the ou...

Thanks Timbo88.
this could be the issue for rejection. hopefully we will be successful in our Sep attempt !!

sorry but no one has confirmed yet if the RMLT has to be submitted at the time of CoS application as well ?
Please can someone confirm this.

Hi Ronin,
my wife had total of 27 points but they have awarded only 7 which essentially means the RMLT was not considered.

Hi Kulmai,
The CoS team got to know about the 11 candidates from the advert summary. we have written now back to the CoS team to re-look at the docs. its a wait a watch game now.

Morning, The reason for my wife's CoS was 1. The HO is not convinced that the vac is genuine 2. They do not find suitable reason why 11 other candidates were rejected for the same post. From the reason for rejection, it seems like HO didnt look into the RMLT docs. We are planning to write back to th...

Guys,
My wife's CoS got rejected today and we are disheartened.
CoS applied : 29/07
Further documents request submitted on 05/08
Rejection date : 22/08
We are still waiting for the rejection reason.

Hi Kulmai and Adviceme, Please keep us updated on the status of your applications. Mine still says under review. Applied on 3rd of August, additional documents sent in on 5th of August. I will keep updated when I receive news from my employer. Hello.. Application says 'Under Review' CoS Applied on ...

Hi Guys.. Just received my COS..! Those who are waiting. I'm sure it's on the way... Goodluck..!! my points were 32. Thanks Kundan Hello Kundan, my assumption on the points calculation is : 1. If the RLMT is cleared : 30 points 2. If salary is above 20,800 : 20 points 3. If you clear SELT (english ...

Thank you Sunny007 & CR007 !!

Hi Kulmai,
I am not an expert but i am just thinking your status from pending to under review means that they are looking at your application now ?

Or you are very sure that pending is a better status than under review ?

Thank you Sunn007.

Just wondering if i made the IHS payment online one then do you still think i will be charged currency conversion charges ?

regards

Please can anyone guide me on this ?

Congrats Kundan !!!

Friends, Need some advice on the IHS payment. I am currently in UK on a ICT Long term which comes to an end by 14Sep2016. My wife has been offered a job and currently awaiting CoS. If we get through the CoS, we will be returning back to my home country India and making a fresh application for her Ti...

Hi thessalycoll,
Please can you let me know if your CoS was applied for July or Aug month ?

Regards

Congratulations on getting your CoS !!

All,
Finally some news for those who are still waiting...
One of my colleagues have confirmed that he has received the CoS for Tier 2 ICT -ST which has issue date as 01Aug2016. I am not very sure if this means the CoS was from July pool.

Hi All,
I am applying for my CoS next month (Aug5th) and hence wondering if there are any carry forwards ? I have been eagerly looking at the updated on gov.uk but to my surprise there is nothing so far.

Please let me know if anyone in this forum has already received the CoS in July month ?

BR

Has anyone received CoS for this month ?

Hello MT2,
Did you finally manage to change your wife's visa ?

I was told he can switch from Tier 2 ICT staff migrant to Tier 1 General without cooling period. Is that assumption correct. His CoS is stated as appx £60K. Tier 1 General has been closed to new applicants for years. He can continue on Tier 2 ICT, or he can change to your dependent (Tier 2 dependen...

1. If the employer is not on the list of licensed sponsors , then the employer must apply to become a licensed sponsor. Only then can an employer sponsor migrants. 2. Read the Tier 2 policy guidance . 3. Your ILR clock will start the day you enter UK as a Tier 2 (General) migrant. A cooling-off per...
