[strangerboo]

Hi All,

My employeer has applied for tier 2 license and have paid the fees etc but have not heard from ukba. when we contact them they say, they have a back log and can take 3 extra weeks, we have applied in march and still nothing

does it normally take this long?

Thanks

My employers applied since the 20th of January (nearly 6 months now) and I'm still waiting for approval. So you may have a very long wait too.

once the application approved, does anyone know how long it takes to get the cos for employee? i am in the UK so the limit should not apply to me.

I meet the requirements of the tier 2 such as approperiate salary, rlt

thanks

Almost instant. If your application is approved they will give you the requested COS with it.

My employer applied on Feb 22 and still haven't heard a thing. It's disheartening to hear that it could take up to 6 months. Have you heard anything?

so is it a max of 6 month ( up to ) if so at least you know when u may hear or the max limit otherwise they can drag it for year/s


i was under impression that the employer should get a response soon and what happens if they need this urgently , again wait 6 month ? if so not a very good system
