Regarding the tier 2 switching

Post by josephprem » Wed Aug 23, 2017 3:10 pm

Dear all
I would like advice from any one of you regarding my tier 2 visa

Currently my curtailment date is going to end on 29th August 2017.

I am going to apply for tier 2 switching to a new employer tommorrow.
but my solicitor says I do not require job offer letter in order to apply for the visa he says only COS is fine .
But during my previous switch I submitted my Tier 2 job offer letter and invitation letter.
Please advice me whether my solicitor is right.
can you tell me any other documents required .
So that my visa comes through successfully .
Please advice me on this issue
Awaiting for your humble reply.
Regards,
Joseph

Offer letter is not required. COS is enough

By the way when was you last day of work with previous employment?

Dear members,

Thank you for the quick reply.
hopefully I will be applying tomorrow or friday.
my last day of work was july 2016 but I did not work after that because I applied for tier 1 Enterpreneur
but my tier1 Entrepreneur got rejected and i received my curtailment letter for tier 2 which gave time until 29th August 2017 .
So iam now applying for Tier 2 as well as going for JR for my Tier 1
Regards,
Joseph
