I have been through the document on the UKBA site. This is what it says: "Please note that the migrant cannot apply for Tier 2 or Tier 5 leave more than three months in advance of the start date stated on their CoS." I am planning to apply for Tier2 General and come to UK in the month of F...
1. Can I apply for ILR and then settlement under Tier2 General for visa issued after 2012 or 2013? 2. I have read the following on UKBA site: So if I am issued a Tier2 General visa say from October 2013 will I be able to apply for ILR? Requirements from 6 April 2016 If you are applying for indefinit...
I have been reading this forum and I have seen a lot of queries regarding switching fromTier2 ICT to Tier2 General. But I have not been convinced about the answers On the UKBA site it says we can switch to Tier2 General under the following circumstances: Tier 2 (Intra company transfer: established s...
Hi manci, So you mean to say if I come to UK on Tier 2 ICT say in the month of July 2013. I can switch to Tier 2General within UK? Do you know someone who has done it? Also as per my understanding people who are on long term established staff can switch from Tier 2 ICT to Tier General. People who ar...
Hi, I have been trying to get an answer to this question but this the first post which says I can switch from Tier2 ICT Established Staff to Tier 2 General. I will share the answer which I have got. If you have a look at the Tier 2 Policy Guidance on the right hand side of the link given. Just check...
I get the point you are trying to make. But I cant risk leaving my current job unless I have the visa as i am not guaranteed that I will get a visa even after having a valid COS. And in case I get the visa I have to serve a 3 months notice. In a fix now. I don't think anyone in UK will wait for so l...
This is a tricky one.
My current employment requires me to serve a 3 months notice.
Can you help me out?
What do I need to tell my employer or how do i plan for the COS?
We are not guaranteed a visa even if we have a valid COS and job offer
So how do I take care of point 2? I will not be traveling to UK immediately after getting the visa. I will travel after 3 months. So what care should the company sponsoring the COS and myself should take care of? So that I don't face any issues later from he UKBA (while applying the visa) and also f...
I am trying to find the answer for this question but I have not been able to find a proper answer If I receive the visa say on 1-July-2013. Can i travel using the same visa after 3 months? Will I or my sponsor be questioned by the UK immigration or UKBA as to why am I traveling after 3 months of rec...
Its difficult to get a sponsor sitting in my Home country. Nobody is willing to do that. Applying for Tier general is not that easy.
Do let me know if you know someone who can help me out.
I have been through the UKBA Site. Check the below link http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/working/tier2/general/eligibility/ Check the question at the bottom. Can you switch to Tier2 General? One of the point it mentions is: Tier 2 (Intra company transfer: established staff), if yo...
Thanks for the reply VickyImmy. This is my understanding based on your post. Please clear my understanding. So if I am issued a Tier2(ICT) visa which is valid for 12 months say from July 2013 and i am working for the company for more than 12 months in my home country then once I am in UK I can switc...
Question 1: Do you have the list of sponsors or rather companies or consultants who are willing to provide COS to people from outside UK? It will help if you provide names through which you have managed to apply successfully. I guess getting COS would be the first step before applying for Tier2. I w...
