For applying for schangen visa for 2 or more years does one need to have travel insurance for more 2 or more years? I am asking because I don't think many companies provide travel insurance for more than 1 year.

I was confused because as the long term visit visas are also valid for x number of years but you have to leave and re enter every 3 months. So I thought that you can only stay on EEA family permit for 3 months. Its good to know that people on EEA family permit can stay for full 6 months without havi...

EEA family permit has a validity of 6 months but I need to know how long can the non EU live in UK on family permit? Is it 3 months stay or 6 months stay?

Ok thanks for informing. I will tell the friend applying for Tier 2 to make a separate account.

If mods please don't mind can we now shift the attention to the question?

I posted about tier 2 on behalf of my friend. Would this be any issue with the forum's policy?

I am a UK citizen living and working in France for the last 3 years. I can apply for french Permanent residence as I also have a postgraduate degree from France.

Or I will be given visa till 14th august 2019 only? I am asking ...

Thanks. My employer has told me that they have added it in the HO system but they have not sent me a new copy of ammended COS. Is it because they have just entered it in the system but no new COS will be issued for this and I can use the old one? or do they need to send me a new copy?

Thanks for replying.

You mentioned "applicants" (i.e, before getting the T2G visa), is it required after getting Tier 2 Gen?

Guys please update on your situation as i am facing a similar situation described here http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tie ... 13448.html. Kindly tell how did your visas work out and did you do anything about the problem with dates?

@Masood Ahmad Please update about your situation as my work start date is set as one week after i will apply.

Is there any requirement for the Tier 2 General immigrants to show all their property and resources that they own in their home country after they move to the UK? Will it cause some problem if a Tier 2 general immigrant brings his money from his home country to the UK (lets say after an year of movi...

Many thanks for the reply. Is it necessary to add this note? I mean is it likely to cause problems with visa application if the start date note is not added to the system?

Thanks. Just to update we went to the UK for a visit and thankfully everything was fine. They didn't ask my wife anything and let her through the check points for EU citizens. Unfortunately, due to nature of my job any of us can not permanently move to UK to reside for sometime.

Dear original poster, were you successful in getting UK residence card for your parents?

My sponsor has given a COS for 3 years but it mentions salary as 30k pounds which is far less than the actual salary (that is 37.5k). I have asked employer to rectify this as low salary will be a problem for ILR.

Thanks for replying. I will coordinate with the HR department.

One more thing, I am working with HR about my salary so I wanted to ask will the HR department have told the home office my salary when they applied for COS?

Yes

My employer got approval for my COS. They are asking me further info to get it assigned. Can they delay the assignment of COS to the next month? If they delay it will they need to get the COS allocated in the next month too? I told my employer that I will join the job in late August or early Septemb...
