Re: November 2017 Restricted COS

My employer emailed them on the 23rd (1 day after receiving rejection) and we heard back from HO via email yesterday morning. Our solicitor did say getting a reply/apology is very rare with HO but if you are confident that there's no mistake on your application, I am sure you will get some good new...

Re: November 2017 Restricted COS

Apologies for the repetitive question, but anyone else waiting gotten their rCOS? Now is the point where I have really started to worry because: 1) The rejection notice has still not come through. This leaves me with minimal time to reapply for Dec quota (cutoff date is 5th of every month). 2) If t...

Re: November 2017 Restricted COS

I think your employer should be deciding this and should be having experience of how HO works.. Mostly it would be that you reapply for Dec also and ask your employer to add comments as to why the reapplication was needed.. In the interim if they come back with positive news then your employer can ...

Re: Tier 2 ICT Long Term to Tier 2 General Dependent

The moment a person is granted a new visa, their old visa stands cancelled immediately.

Hopefully, this helps to answer your other questions as well

Thanks. Yes it was in shortage occupation list. I think they submitted the documents on the 3rd of November. When did your employer apply? I pray you get a positive update soon.

Re: November 2017 Restricted COS

Yes, I am not really sure why it didn't go through the normal allocation as this is what I expected to happen. In terms of points I believe for completed RLMT and salary £36k the application scored 20 + 16 = 36 points. But in all previous months allocations the minimum for allocation was 21 points ...
