Andydude - Did you go ahead with Lesters? I do know of Lesters, but I don't know too much about them.

Hi,

Some ICT visa holders can switch but it depends on when your Entry Clearance ICT application was made. If you applied after 6th April 2011, then you cannot switch to a Tier 2 (General).

When did you first apply for your Tier 2 ICT?

Hi,

It is possible but as you have guessed, gaining Tier 2 sponsorship is not a walk in the park. A lot of companies do not hold a Tier 2 License and those who, often are reluctant to got through the sponsorship process.

Can I ask what your area of expertise / skill-set is?

Thanks

James
