Hello,
Its with immense support from the forum, i managed to change my visa from Tier 2 ICT dependent to Tier 2 General.
Its time, where i need more support and help to complete the second part.
Situation :
> My wife is on Tier 2 ICT valid from Jan 2102 till Jan 2015.
> I have changed to Tier 2 General in July 2014.
New Situation :
> My wife would be starting her maternity leave from : Jan-2015.
> Confirmation of maternity start dates were informed to the employer in July 2014
> Now, the customer / client has let the employer know that, they would not need the services of my wife from the time her Maternity starts (Jan / 2015)
> Due to which the employer is not willing to extend the Tier 2 ICT visa.
Questions :
> Since i have a tier 2 General, my wife should be able to switch in country to be my Tier 2 General Dependent right ?
> If she switched to Tier 2 general dependent, obviously her employer will have to intimate UKBA of probably change of visa right ?
> If she switches visa and still be an employee under her current employer, can she can still avail the Maternity Statuary pay ?
> Is the visa - employment - maternity statutory pay all interlinked ?
Many Thanks in Advance.
