i am not an expert. might be worth waiting to see replies from expert members regarding above questions.namkongpapa wrote:yes i had tier 2 by the time my position ceased at the preivous office and had stayed on tier 2 ( early Aug 2009 to early Dec 2009) before gained tier 1. in other words, i had stayed here on tier 2 for approx. 4 months while being out of work. of course tried to make a new application which was tier 1 that i have at the moment. based on the article,
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/worki ... s/#header6
i sent out my tier 1 application within 60 days after left work and first and second attept were not successful for various reason and finally got tier 1 in early Dec 2009. do you think my stay was illegal? do you think i should have left uk as immediately as possible?
as i have been on tier 1, of course i can prove that i am economically active and i've got my 5 p60's even though the last one is significantly different from the others in terms of amount of money earned and tax paid due to being out of work. do you think i would have to show them my p45 as well?
thanks,
It might be arguable as well. First of all, I have never come across ‘ 90 days’ other than ’60 days’ linked above,renzokuken wrote:In theory your Tier-2 is invalid once you are made redundant, If I remember correctly there is 90 days grace period for you to get new visa, but in your case it is more than that, therefore it is considered as break of residence.
