Increase in allocation of COS

Post by hardhercule » Thu Dec 15, 2011 12:52 pm

I had recently made an application for Tier 2 - General category which was rejected due to incorrect SOC code.

My company has now requested for an increase in allocation of COS since there were none available to allocate, which will then enable me to apply again. My question is does anyone know how long does it take to get the increase allocation of COS through the online Sponsor Management System?

It's been 2 weeks since the request was made but nothing seems to have come through.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

No one knows. When I was in a similar situation I was given an increase within 24 Hours. My level1 user called UKBA and they said we have to wait but then he sent a email to PBS and they did it instantly. We clearly mentioned we need it urgently as my PSW was running out.

Maybe its cause of Christmas.

Hmm maybe there is a delay,

My level1 user emailed this add -> SponsorshipPBSenquiries@ukba.gsi.gov.uk

Those support people in the call center have no clue and often give you wrong information. I suggest your Level1 user email them using the above address ^
