I am on WP and planning to apply for tier 1 in a month or two. My leave to remain is valid till 2011. Now my problem is I have been offered another job and my new employer is ready to transfer my WP. My questions are
1. Can I work under new employer without FLR for new WP? I understand that I have 6 months time after the date of approval of transfer of WP.
2. If I work for the new employer's WP my FLR will be from old WP and if my old employer inform HO regarding this transfer and cancel my wp in writing can i still legally work on that FLR?
3. My concern is that once I joined the new employer and start work with them, I will soon file my Tier 1 application and in case my old employer cancel my WP what would be my status . I could not even file the in-person FLR application as my passport will be in HO for Tier1 appplication
Please help me as I have to decide on this new offer of employment asap.
Thanks very much
If your change of employment application has been approved the individual must apply to vary their leave to remain (FLR), to cover their change of employment. They will need to use from FLR(IED).
