Thanks In Advance

thanks iworker, forgot to mention one thing that my role is not in the shortage occupation list as I am an experienced consultant - would this matter?

Hi all, I would appreciate any help on this, tried to search but couldn't find exact scenario/situation. I am currently on tier 2 general and planning to switch to a new employer in UK My details: On tier 2 from Nov 2014 via - Tier 2 (General - New hires - restricted) for this I had to apply from In...

1. If you are not inside the UK there is no restriction on working for an entity that is based in the UK. That is not an immigration issue. 2. The visa could take some time to be issued. 3. In India in particular, I think those services are only for visit visas . Hi Lucapooka, Regarding point 1 - T...

Thanks for your replies Luca and manci 1. One more thing I want to ask is...when I am away in India for visa, my wife and daughter will be staying in the UK as their visa will be valid till june-2014. Will there be any issues regarding this? 2. From this http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immig...

Hi All, Let me explain my current situation first and then I will ask my questions! I have been in the UK for 3 years now as a dependant. Current Visa: PSW dependant expires Jun-2014 I work full time for a UK company and my company is willing to sponsor me. I am planning to switch my visa into Tier ...

Brilliant

Thanks safajnaseef

In 2016, if your husband applies from inside the UK, then cooling-off period won't apply to him. If he applies from outside the UK, then he must wait for 12 months cooling-off period before applying. I hope this clarify the confusion. Thanks for the clarification safajnaseef I was in a impression t...

Cooling-off period won't apply on your husband as his last visa was dependent on Tier 1 Post Study Work. And even if your husband visa is dependent Tier2 General then he can switch for Tier2 General from abroad without the need to wait for 12 cooling-off period. Hi safajnaseef I think there is a li...

Yes dependant need to apply from outside. There is no cooling off period. Are you sure about that..because I was asking about the time he completes his 2/3 years of Tier 2 and then should he do cooling-off period?? not for the first time. Regarding this http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent...

one last question

If my husband(PSW dependent) have to switch to Tier 2 General..in which case he has to go back to home country and apply.

Is there a chance for ILR in such case? (assuming cooling-off period will apply before second extension)

Thanks sheraz7

By the time we complete our 5 years of Tier 2 tenure - we will also complete 8 1/2 in total, so we can also keep the 10 years as an options in worst case.

ok, it seems like £35,500 from April 2018

Hi safajnaseef

Thank you again! it is helpful.

So if I am going for ILR on completion of 5th year - should the whole 5th year salary should be above 35k or by end of 5th year??

Thanks

Basically here are my details: I am PSW main applicant My husband is PSW dependent (he also works full time with 45k) We are thinking to switc...
