Promotion under Tier 2

[MoAbdul]

I were on a TIER 4 visa and got my MBA. I got a job and accordingly changed my visa to Tier 2 without a labour market test 16 months ago.
If I get a promotion to be the team leader, do I need to reapply for my visa?
Can my employer unfairly keep my salary as it is even after the promotion, because he knows that it is not easy finding another sponsored job?

If I found a new job with another employer, do they need to do a labour market test?

Thanks,

I think you may or may not need a new visa because of your promotion, depending on your duties. Read official Tier 2 policy guidances. If you change jobs, a new RLMT will be necessary unless the role in the shortage occupation list. Regarding lowrt salaries, yes it does happen, but I think not on a massive scale.

Hi Moabdul,

I'm having the same issue and was just wondering what happened on your visa? did you need a new RLMT and a new visa? I'm getting promoted soon and will need to know this ASAP. Any update from those who had the same issue is greatly appreciated.

Cheers
