UCoS Allocation Priority Service Number URGENT!

Post by sut7392 » Tue Jan 08, 2019 11:24 am

Hi Guys,

I have an offer from Tier 2 (A Rated) company. They have requested a UCoS allocation through the SMS system, but my Tier 4 visa expires on the 30/01/2019. We tried to contact the priority service for UCoS allocation on 0141 5556027 but the call fails every single time. Is there any other way to get this done on priority? OR is there is any alternative number or email that can we used?

Kindly suggest!!

Regards,

sut7392

Unfortunately this is the only number, normally it remain busy and the only option is to keep trying. My last employer also faced same problem but then luckily get connected one day.

Also you have about about 3 weeks until your VISA expiry, so UCOS might be allocated by then without priory as well. In 2015 at the time of my 1st Tier 2 application, the UCoS was allocated within 1 week by UKVI without priority service.

Hi Unitedman,

Thanks for your reply!

My employer has been calling this number for the past 3 days but no one picks up!

Can you please tell me what time did your employer call?

Thanks,

Hi Unitedman,

My employer received the allocation same day as well. I applied for the Tier 2 Visa on 14th January through the 10 day priority service. Got my Biometric and documents scan appointment on the 21st.

Unitedman
I'm glad for you. I'm in a bit of a situation. My T2 visa application got refused due to inappropriate salary. I was considered as experirenced worker due to 5 yr length. My employer has been trying apply for the priority ucos allocation since 21st, the line has always been busy.

My visa expires 30th of this month, and i got my refusal on 18th of this month. What can i do to buy time while my employer works on getting the new cos. Thanks
