Hi, I am preparing to extend my tier 2 visa, my visa expires in 02/16 and my employment starts in 05/13 but I have the permit in 04/13. How do I count the duration of this visa? 2 years 9 months from the commencement of my employment?
Anyway, I am slightly concerned with this extension application since my first application was not a smooth sailing one. I have a few questions:
1. When should I start to apply the extension and when should I advise my current employer to get the COS for me?
2. Would I be required to prepare all the documents as in my previous application again ? I am applying for my dependents as well (wife & 3 children).
3. Will this extension be given to make up at least 5 years for me or I have to request for it? Is there situation where I am give says 2 years then i need to extend for 3 months to make it 5 years (assuming the previous visa covers 2 years 9 months)?
4. Previously I have to use my Phd study to move from tier 4 to tier 2, for this extension do I still need to get letter from my Uni to certify my previous tier 4 status? or it looks at my exsiting tier 2 status?
5. pls advise me anything I need to know for extension application.
Many thanks
