HI,

I went to see the HR at work and I found out that even though we asked for 2 UCOS we do not have allocation for it. We applied for it today but I am scared that it will not come before my visa runs out. How long does it take?

There is no problem with the COS. If I apply for the tier 2 General visa now, how long the visa would be if my contract finished in July 2013? will I have to extend my tier 2 general visa after July 2013?
