We made payment of £200 on the phone and on the same day they sent us an email saying allocation has been granted. I was kind of surprised how qu...

Hi, Yesterday I submitted my form online for my Tier 2 General VISA extension. And today HR received an email as 'Reminder: annual CAS/CoS allocation expiry in 1 month' Which says like this "We sent you an email two months ago to notify you that you can apply to renew your allocation of Certifi...

IIRC your application is an extension, right? From my last COS: Have you met the resident labour market test? Answer : Yes Give details of the resident labour market test including where and when the post was advertised and reference number(s) for mandatory advertising: Answer: Resident labour mark...

It is getting annoying that you keep opening a new topic with each and every question you have rather than keeping all your questions on the same application in ONE topic. See Multiple Posts (click) See below. Yes you need an appointment, it is not just a 'walk in off the street' service. You pay o...

Hi
I am a confused.
I want to go for premium service to apply for my (Tier 2 General) extension. DO I need to make an appointment first?
Where can I find the information?

Also if I want to extend for 3 years which one should I go for:-
(up to 3 years) or (over 3 years) ?

kind regards
kumar

thanks Casa.
So its £1,764 £1,164 + £600(3 years) if applied before April right?

Kumar I have asked couple immigration advisers on this issue. I will get back to you as soon as I get any response back. Hi ozayh.malik, One of the guy just posted this latest Codes of pratice. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-appendix-j-codes-of-practice-for-skilled-...

Hi,
Just came to know that the post code of my office was written wrong in my previous COS. It is just the post code.
We wil be soon creating new COS for my Tier 2(general) VISA extension. Do you think it will create an issue if they see a different post code in my new COS?

kind regards
kumar

According to the @iworker, salary threshold is such a confusing issue right now. I read on the NSH tier 2 Employer website they have clearly mentioned it that it will only affect those who got their visa on or after 24th of November. But still not sure about that. [Ref] Do the new higher salary thr...

Hi Kumar, Your company should contact employer helpline and ask them how can they get urgent Cos. I am not sure how but I am sure that the company get request additional unrestricted COS any time. Your company SMS user probably does not know how to do this. Best to ask them to get in touch with Emp...

1. previous reply was about cos start date 2. they can be if u want 3. generates automatically, straightaway. Cos start date can be anything from today to 3 months in future. it cant be in past. end date can be anything.. if it is equal to 3 years or a day more, you will have to pay 5 year fee. you...

14 June 2017 - 13 June 2020, given that u want to get the cos generated on 15 march Thank you very much iworker. I have few more questions. Hope you don't mind. 1. What about the COS start date and end date? Is it 15 march to 15 June? 2. Can't my work start date be 16 march 2017 - 15 march 2010, gi...

Thanks again @ozayh.malik

Thanks ozayh.malik
Just one qucik question.
In my previous COS, weekly hours of work was 40.
Does it has to 40 this time also?

Hi, Last Thursday(23 Feb), a person in my HR department called HO and requested renewal of annual COS allocation . Cause we didn't had any COS allocation left. It was a premium service. We paid them £200 through phone. Today we checked the SMS sytem and under Request additional CoS or CAS section, i...

Hi Rayesh, Your employer needs to ring Premium Service desk on the number 01415556027. Make a priority CoS allocation and pay £200. Check with them how long does this take and I believe they will say 5 working days. You would be lucky if you get within 5 working days as it normally takes 15 to 20 d...

Thanks @iworker

well to start with, its not you who needs to fill this, this would be your employer. He should know this by reading the guidance. But yes if they put the details of the reason they need a cos, it should be enough. Mentioning rlmt, adds, tier 4 visa convert etc should help. Hi iworker, I have same q...

Refer the T2 Policy Guidance again (Section 83). You will fall under this category: £25,000 or the appropriate rate for the job, whichever is the higher. In your case, £25,000 is the higher value, so your salary should be more that this. Also, please note that if you apply for your extension after ...
