Tier 2 General Migrant Restricted CoS: chnage of employer

Post by maqsood.alig » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:02 am

Hello,

I have got Tier 2 General Migrant with restricted COS. I am working with the current employer.

Is it possible to change the employer now? Please explain me if there are any restrictions.

Thanks

You can make a change of employment application if you have an unrestricted CoS from a new sponsor.

Thanks for the reply.

It means I can change my employer if my new employer provides unrestricted COS on Tier 2 General Migrant. Am i right?

Please correct me.

Thanks

Hi,

Is there any time period to be served before applying for unrestricted COS as i have currently restricted COS on Tier 2 Gen Mig. My visa is valid from July 2014 only.

Please reply with your suggestions.

Thanks

yes, you can make a change of employment application but for it to be successful you'll have to meet all the applicable requirements as well (skill level, salary, etc)
Please correct me.

Thanks
