Out of date info in COS - ILR - SET(O) via Tier2Gen

Post by D_Torque » Wed Dec 12, 2018 4:52 pm

Hi Guys,

My company has not updated the details on COS for a while, due to the previous HR resigning and there being no person responsible to update this.

Which means the following details are out of date:
1. My home address
2. My salary (it was a department wide increment, so I am guessing this will be okay)
3. The company's address

I am due to apply for ILR - SET(O) via Tier 2 5 year route in next few weeks.

How big an issue this can be to my application?

The company is aware of this and the new HR has requested a user name for herself. She is reluctant to do the change logged in with the credentials of the previous HR who does not work here.

I can't wait too long, otherwise I will cross the 28 days priority application window.

What are my options?

Thanks in advance

My presumption is I can only apply for Super Priority in the pre 28 days before my 5 year period.

Am I correct in thinking that or has that changed recently?

You can apply no sooner than within 28 days before reaching 5 years using any sevice OR anytime before your visa expires using any service!

Thank you for clearing that up, CR001.
This means I can and should probably wait for the SMS to be updated.

May I ask what will be the repercussions if I progress with my application when the system has not been updated.

Note also that as a PBS migrant, you were required to update HO with your address change details on the prescribed form. Did you not do that?

Salary shouldn't be an issue if it was an annual increment for everyone.

Your sponsor has a duty to update their own details with HO so a company address change is a biggie.

It may not sound good but I have never done that in the past.
I have already applied for several Tier 2 visas and this was never an issue.

Regardless, I will initiate the process and update my address with HO.

Do you know how long it takes for the changes to take affect?

I am in the same situations. I asked my employer about the changes that we should notify to the home office about the salary changes and change of my address via SMS, but he said that he can not make any changes via SMS.

Any ideas please!

1. You should keep your questions in your own topic please.

2. It is your responsibility as a PBS migrant to update your address details with HO.
