Hi all,
Anybody recently switched from tier 4 pbs dependent to tier 2 General inside UK?
How about the RLMT process and results affected any?
Please assist me.
I have a tier 2 sponsor but want to know like what if in RLMT suitable setted job seekers are found (which happens most of the time)??

Hi all,
I deeply appreciate if anybody clarify my doubt
I currently hold tier 4 dependent visa. I'm planning to switch to tier 2 General.
I hold a UK bachelor's honours.
Does my employer still need to do RLMT before issuing cos?
Thanks

You have to apply from home country.
Yes RLMT is required if not a shortage occupation.
If a settled worker is found, you cannot be offered the job.

Unless the rules have changed, Tier 4 dependents can apply to switch to Tier 2 General. I take switch implies,
they can apply in country

Looks like the rules didn't change after all and that is time for a well-earned coffee break
