Hello ,

Would like to know from :

If in country switch ( Tier 2 General , Change of Employer) is done after April 2017, will the employer have to Pay : Immigration Skills charge for the duration of visa ?

Unfortunately yes, it appears so
Any suggestions I make in the forum are out my personal experience and should not be taken as a legal/professional advise.
