Hi Ya,
Last year, my Tier 2 ICT visa extended and received bio metric card along with some information leaf let from home office. In that leaflet, Under Can I change sponsor ? I could see the below.
"Having been granted leave to remain as Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer: Long Term Staff) Migrant, you are restricted to working for the sponsor that assigned your Certificate of Sponsorship. If you wish to change your employer to a different sponsor, the new sponsor will be required to assign you a Certificate of Sponsorship. You should then make a fresh application for leave to remain using the appropriate application form and paying the appropriate fee, no more than 3 months prior to the start date of your new employment."
By reading this my understanding was, I can change the sponsor with in U.K without serving cooling off period. I mean, we can switch to Tier 2 general, if I found any sponsor.
Correct me if I am wrong and share your thoughts on this please..
Thanks
Dhana
