immigration cap

[asal]

Does the immigration cap would be applicable for tier1 extension ?

When I go for extension on 2012 what would be the immigration cap rule?

thanks

I am afraid it will.

1.5 ... Our recommended limit for Tier 1 will apply to the current Tier 1 general route
only, including dependants. It will apply to inflows into and from within Tier 1
from both within and outside the UK. It will therefore include in-country
migrants switching into, and extending under, Tier 1.

Correct ... although what you need to understand is that these recommendations are applicable for those who apply post April 2011.

my god.. that's a very bad change
Will that mean,
(1) extending T1 after April 2011 will be a problem
(2) Bringing Dependent after April 2011 will be a problem?
