Last August I went from a Tier 5 YMS to a Tier 2 and it was the most stressful thing ever. It could be rejected i it was not done properly. I am assuming since you said that they put a cos application in you are waiting for the next meeting in july to get approval. If the RLMT is not done correctly,...
When my cos was not successful last september, my employer was very upset because I was shortage but they were told that you cannot appeal a cos when they called to speak to them on the issue. So i assume your company is going for resubmission. We had to wait till october to try again and then it wa...
Sorry I have not had to attend one or read of anyone who has. Perhaps some more information and people will be able to help you. Are you switching into this category or brand new? Did you already submit your documents and submit your biometrics? I have heard of people being called or asked to submit...
I was denied my first tier 2 visa application as well, so I understand the financial loss. When my employer received the new cos, the length of employment was longer so I do not see a problem with the length of time being different as you are creating a fresh application with a new cos. Mine was iss...
1. If it is not on the shortage list, then answer is NO 2. Not sure, but way back when I did my tier 5 yms and I was coming in the country for the very first time, I put in the employer I was working for address and had no issues 3. If your sponsor has confirmed maintenance for you than to my knowle...
My process was quite tedious as the person in HR of my company, I found out, did not know what they were doing really. The first time i applied my tier 5 had not expired yet. It does not matter because it was going to expire soon and if you get a new visa, the previous one becomes invalid. However, ...
I was on a tier 5 yms and just switched to a tier 2 general a month ago under shortage occupation. You cannot switch from a youth mobility visa to tier 2. The yms is meant to be a two year visa and then it ends. It is not meant to lead to settlement. The only way that I have read on this board of pe...
as soon as you make the application and pay the fees, then if anything is wrong then you will lose it. They dont check before hand. Happened to me, employer applied for the wrong cos, I had no idea (actually they didnt realize as well), thought they did everything right. I went applied, paid all the...
Can put up my timeline! The hardest thing was to get the RCOS (my employer messed it up twice!), the visa was quite quick which just came by courier and I am getting on the plane tomorrow evening! 1. Category applying under (General / ICT / other) - General ( Shortage Occupation ) 2. Country of appl...
Well you have to look at the shortage occupation list document and what it says. So for your SOC Code it says that it includes the following ONLY the following jobs in this occupation code: the following jobs in the railway industry: - signalling design manager - signalling design engineer - signa...
Congrats on getting yours approved! I saw on the other thread, it is so good that they came down in points this month. I completed my application on monday right after I found out and there were appointments next day so I went and submitted my documents and biometrics today so they will be in New Yo...
Mine just got approved but I was applying under shortage, exempt from RLMT. My employer got the email at noon UK time. Last month it got rejected as shortage because I think my employer filled it out wrong but I am very happy for this months outcome. I am just waiting for all the details. Unfortunat...
It also says to see the sponsor guidance in regards to points scoring https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/461312/tier_2_5_sponsor_guidance_04_15_word_v1_2.pdf which if you look on the first page in the addenum it says it will use the new points scoring for 12 Oc...
Interested on what happened to you when you went back in? I am in the exact same situation as you, and have been waiting to see if sponsorship will work out. Soon, if it does not then I am giving up but all of my stuff is in my flat with my boyfriend (not british), and I would really like my stuff e...
The sponsor guidance document updated on September 17th on the first page says that the new points system will be used as of October 12th decision day.
Perhaps someone could give me some advice as I have been trying to get a sponsorship certificate for the past 2 months to no success. I was on a tier yms for 2 years which ended on august 1st. I then went back home to apply for a tier 2 sponsorship as my employer wanted to continue to sponsor me. I ...
