Thank you for your prompt reply.mulderpf wrote:You can still use this visa for working in the UK. Technically, you should not be using it as a visitor visa and should go there with the intention of working.
Thank you everybody for clearing the air. Actually this seed of doubt was planted by the security of New Delhi BHC. They haven't allowed me go in and put my query to BHC officer. Instead, they told me that my Tier-1 Visa can not be used as work Visa, now.LearningCurve wrote:@ cskmail,
You might want to make a note of this. If you get in by February with a job, you have about 8 months left on your Tier 1 visa.
If you plan on applying for an extension in September, then you are going to have to show earning proofs, which means you should have your eligible earnings for that 8 month period.
Another thing, I hear is employers make sure that you have atleast 12 months on your visa, before offering you permanent employment. Am not so sure about contracting though.
Just be aware so you are prepared. Good Luck.
@ rehannan
You will have to qualify for your 2nd extension, which is again points based. Use the PBS calculator.
Yes you can do the enter uk, go back and come in within 90 days. This topic has been discussed many times in the forum, so look around. Just that you will have to have the right answers to give the IO when you come back in the 2nd time.
