nagomi - I know you posted this 1 year ago but what did you do in this end? Did you apply for the Tier 5 YMS and if so, what was the update?? I'm facing similar situation in which things didn't work out with my previous employer who sponsored my Tier 2 visa. Since then, I have left the UK and am ab...

With RLMT, no valid sponsor licence etc etc, Tier 2 is not a possible option.

Will I be able to do voluntary work (no contract, no payment) whilst my Tier 2 is still valid before I leave the country?

Sorry what does this mean?

T5 YMS in your circumstances would be refused as it is clear as day what the intent would be. The refusal would be on the grounds that you would fail to meet the T5 requirement to leave the UK. You are already resident in the UK under tier 2 so why would you not want to extend tier 2 to get to your...

I want to try out different work fields & travel around the uk but Tier 2 (General) doesn't give the flexibility.

I hold a British National Overseas passport & will turn 31 next March.

I am currently on Tier 2 (General), valid until mid-October. I need to wait until at least end of 2017 before I can apply for ILR through 10years long residence. If I resign before my current leave expires, and apply for Tier 5 (YM), 1. Can I submit the application whilst I am still in the uk? Then ...

I might lose my current Tier 2 (expiring Sept 2016) due to redundancy. I am hoping to have the 24mths from Tier 5 towards 10years long residence for ILR. So I need to calculate how much time I have and when is the absolute deadline I need to action the Tier 5 application, hence, the below 2 queries ...

I currently has a Tier 2 (General) visa and want to apply for Tier 5 (YMS), is this possible? What will happen to the existing Tier 2? What does the 30 years old eligibility actually mean? The site doesn't seem to be very clear about this. Can the intended to travel date be when I have already turne...

Thank you. I am currently working in Procurement / Buying. Would I need to apply for Tier 5 (YMS) within the 60 days grace period of Tier 2? or I can used up the 60 days first, like leaving the country on the 59th day and apply online on the 61st day? What does the 30 years old eligibility actually ...

I have a British National (Overseas) passport, and previously had Student entry clearance (before PBT existed), Tier 4 (Student), Tier 1 (Post-Study Work), and currently, Tier 2 (General).

I haven't applied for UK working holiday (before PBT) or any other PBT visas apart from those above.

Thanks.

I have been living in the UK for over 10 years and more than half of my life.
