If the employer didn't see the original visa prior to employing this person they should have used the Employer Checking Service (http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/ecs/requestform) to get confirmation of right to work. Failing to do so may be seen as an indication that th...
As manci has said there is no rule to prevent this, however, Entry Clearance applications can be refused where the Entry Clearance Officer (ECO) is not satisifed the applicant qualifies. So if, for example, the ECO was not satisifed these 2 individuals had the necessary skills to do this job their v...
Paragraph 245HD(c) of the Immigration Rules states: An applicant who has, or was last granted leave as a Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer) Migrant must: (i) have previously had leave as a Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer) Migrant under the Rules in place before 6 April 2010, or in the Established Staff ...
Contracting is not allowed to happen under the CURRENT rules - which might be why your sponsors name has been removed from the list. They are 'mistaken' (or lying) about the reason for removal - sponsors applying for premium status don't get removed from the list.
The wording in the Immigration Rules is 'in the same profession and at the same professional level'. So it's the job you do, not the type of company you do it.
When applying for the license online, there's a question about how many CoS is needed, so they should not ask this again, It's quite normal for them to ask, nothing to worry about. The form just has a box for a number but they want to know reasons and to check the sponsor is wanting unrestricted cos.
That wording (sent to your employer by the Employer Checking Service I presume) implies the UKBA still think your appeal is ongoing and that you can work on the terms of the visa you held on the day your applied.
Your employer may not have any certificates left, in which case they would have to ask UKBA for some more and give a basic justification of what they want them for. This can take 2-3 weeks but is usually just a few days. Or, they may have already assigned the certificate but are unfamiliar with how ...

You can hold two CAS but not two CoS - the system doesn't allow a second one to be assigned if there is already a CoS with a status of 'Assigned'. After 3 months, or when it is used as part of an application, a further CoS can be assigned.
Sounds like the case has been rejected. The typical reason is that a mandatory document was not received by UKBA. They write out and ask for more if a non-mandatory document is missing but reject and return everything where a mandatory document hasn't been provided. Ask the employer to call 0300 123...

Fail to understand why is chef listed in the SOC at Level 3! Who is that for?
That's there for those that came into Tier 2 when NQF Level 3 was permitted, they can still extend / change employer despite the bar being raised for new applicants.
Thanks for the reply Jeeves. Does that also mean I cannot travel on Shortterm visa? As far as I read, any person who travelled on Longterm earlier can apply under shortterm and vice versa during the cooling off period. Regards, AJ That only works one way - those on short term can come back on long ...
