Switching from Tier2 to Tier1, Information plz

Post by mortuzahasan » Thu Jan 01, 2009 1:08 pm

Hi all,
I work for a company and last September i got the company sponsored work permit. now i like to switch my immigration category from Tier2 to Tier1. i can score the required points for this category. but if i apply for the tier1, will they cancel my current tier2 visa? or, if i get refused, will my tier2 visa still be valid?
any information or advice will be highly appreciated.
regards

Leave to remain/enter under WP (I am assuming you are still under WP & not tier 2) will be cancelled if leave to remain/enter (switching) is approved under Tier-1.

Your WP will not be cancelled if you fail to get the Tier-1 approval
