Tier 2 General WP - Clarification

[guruprasadr]

Hi,

We received approval for Tier 2 General Sponsorship, we are in process of hiring Tier 2 general candidate. Did RMLT.

Clarification: Once assign a new COS in Tier 2 general for hiring candidate will get any stamp in his/her passport by UK home office.

Or only BRP card and new CoS is sufficient for new employer. How effective date will be captured here.

[CR001]

The person you are employing has to apply for a visa. They need the CoS to do this. They are two separate processes.

What the employee get a depends where they apply for their visa.

[guruprasadr]

Employing person in UK, still person need to apply for visa stamping. If person outside UK, we can apply visa using CoS. How about person in UK?

[CR001]

They need to apply for a visa. The CoS allows them to do this. A CoS is not a visa. The applicant must also meet all the standard requirements including maintenance and have a valid visa, I e not an overstayed as a foreign national.

[guruprasadr]

To apply visa, person need to be in home country or Switching visa will be issued while in UK by UK home office. Is there any guideline or link to refer.

[CR001]

It depwnda what their current visa atatus is on whether they can apply in the UK.

Unless you state the circumstances and details, this will become a long single question posts topic before you get any useful help.

Did you do any reading up f this visa??

We have real situation, we hired a person in UK. We want to know whether he need to go for visa stamping with new CoS outside UK. He already spent 3 years in Tier 2 General with other employer.

I really hope for his sake he is not already working for you and that you have completed the RLMT fully before offering him the job and assuming he still has a valid visa.

Take the help of a Solicitor if you are unsure about anything or if you find online guidance not sufficient for yourselves.
Thanks
