If the role is in same SOC, there shouldn't be any problem with different title.

Q1) I believe my sponsor company needs to generate an "Unrestricted CoS". Am I correct? Yes Q2) The last date of the work is 15th September, Can the new start date be 16th of September? Yes Q3) With the new extension for three more years, my total stay in the UK will reach nearly six year...

Sorry if the last point was unclear, Yes, you can apply separately as premium and once you have the visa you can apply for the dependents as standard, but you have to meet the maintenance requirement in that case, however if you all apply at the same time you all will get maintenance points automati...

Dear member, I am on Tier 2 general visa, expiring on 14 August 2019. I am planning to apply for extension. My current salary is £27900 for 32 hours and SOC code is 2429. I have couple of question.

Thanks for confirming.

Sorry, I didn't know, I m sure have read about it, maybe for some other category, well, thanks for updating. So the absences before 11th Jan18 won't be counted, so her absence counter is still 180 days, so if she goes for 70days now and then 30 days in Nov2019, she will still have 80 days in the tal...

Hi,

You don't get an "Acknowledgement Letter" now, even bio-metrics letter is printed straight after the completion of payment, and its initial text says that "Thank you for your application for permission to stay in the UK."

KR,

If she is already in UK, and you are the only one applying as a dependent then she only needs to show £630 for 90 days.

Yes they are enough, even parent's passport and BRP copy is additional, you get to see the list of documents you have to send when you complete the payment and ihs bit anyway.

Currently, BRP, Passports and photographs and off course a valid COS number with appropriate salary.


It will also depend if there are any changes when you apply, really.

You wont be asked about your dependants in your application form, yes if you all are applying same time (which you are not) you can add your dependents.

By above, I mean that I dont need to apply for either of my dependants visa with me and I can go ahead applying alone, as I dont feel either of them need a visa at this stage. Yes, that's right.Your wife's leave is valid till 30/05/2019 Just watch out for your dependants stay out of uk for more tha...

No, it has to be from within 30 days, at least from the date of application.

Yes, you can show your Bank statement to satisfy maintenance for your dependants if you have held enough money for 90 days.

150. You will be awarded 10 points if you are applying for leave to remain under Tier 2 (General), Tier 2 (Sportsperson) or Tier 2 (Minister of Religion) and you meet the requirements of one of the categories listed below: • you are a national of a majority English speaking country; or • you hold a ...

****Apologies, Somehow I got an impression that the child was born in UK and you are applying from with in UK, please ignore my response.

The following documents are required: * Valid Passport (Applicant's) * Two Passport size photos. * Maintenance Proof * Birth Certificate *UKVI will verify "your(main T2 visa holder)" details by the information provided in the form, where you have to enter BRP number and Sponsor's license n...

But if you "wish" to get a refund and apply later then it is a different scenario.

Hi,

There is no such rule that you can only apply 28 days before you visa expires for extension, you can apply whenever you want, start date on COS shouldn't be more than 90 days in future.

KR,
