Dear Members,
I am currently on TIER 2 General VISA sponsored by my current employer that is valid till Jan 2017. My wife, who is a TIER 2 Dependent under me, also has the same validity. I have gone through a lot of posts which mentions that the dependent does not have to apply with me, if I am switching employer. It would just be me who has to file a new TIER 2 General VISA under the new sponsor/employer. Could someone please confirm the same?
After checking the Tier 2 - Changing Employers Guide, it is mentioned that a conditional offer letter needs to be obtained from the new employer. Could some one please let me know what those conditions might be? This is just for awareness and to explain the same to my new sponsor.
I also heard a rumor that TIER 2 General VISA would not be processed after 2018. Is it true and if not do they have any conditional clause, like earning a minimum of £ 35,000 pa? I would only be eligible for ILR by Feb 2019.
I am sorry if I am asking the same question. If so, kindly guide me to the correct post and I would check the same.
Thanks & Regards
