Tier 2 General changing employer

[ukpswstatus2]

Hi all,

I would appreciate any help on this, tried to search but couldn't find exact scenario/situation.

I am currently on tier 2 general and planning to switch to a new employer in UK

My details:
On tier 2 from Nov 2014 via - Tier 2 (General - New hires - restricted)
for this I had to apply from India fulfilling (RLMT)resident labour market test

I would like to change to a new employer, but the question is should I ask my new employer to request a Restricted CoS or an Unrestricted CoS??

Thanks

unrestricted. apply within uk only.
rlmt needs to be done.

thanks iworker, forgot to mention one thing that my role is not in the shortage occupation list as I am an experienced consultant - would this matter?

also another quick question
My current visa is valid until Nov-2019 - so when I switch my employer should my include my wife and daughter? or can they stay on current PBS dependent visa???
