Hi,
I'm currently on a tier 2 visa with an issue date in November 2018, and I arrived in the UK in January 2019. My current visa is due to expire in November 2018. I've just got a new job with a different company, and they are working on issuing my sponsorship. They have told me that they are only able to issue it for 2 years with a start date in April 2021 and that it would be up to the Home Office if they wanted to make it longer. This would put me just a few months shy of being eligible for ILR in 3 years. I'm having trouble understanding why the first one was for 3 years, but they are only able to do the new one for 2 years, given that my current company would have to withdraw their CoS (I think?) for the new company to be able to issue the new one. Is this correct and is there any way I can get it for 3 years, so I don't have to apply for a new visa in a few years when I should be close to applying for ILR?
