I came to uk last july 2013 under tier 2 ict short term staff migrant and its going to end in june 2014.
1. As per new immigration rules is it possible to switch from tier2 ict short term staff migrant to other visa category ? The only option is to move into T2 ICT Long Term without any cooling-off, but would require a min. annual salary of £40600
2. As per new rules the cooling off period would apply for ict short term staff migrant visa? YES, if you're switching into Tier-2 General category or re-applying as T2 ICT Short-term category
Thanks,
Saran

Thanks for the reply.
Is there any way to switch in to any other visa category other than tier 2 without cooling off period.
ONLY to Tier-4 (study visa) is possible without cooling-off, in case if you're planning for any full-time studies.
Thanks,
Saran

Please note that you will need to go back to your home country and then apply for LONG term visa and come back on new UK entry stamp. All further long term extensions can be done while being in UK.
