Couple of points here appreciate if you can answer
(1) I understand a RMLT would be required in this case, is that true even in case of promotions which cause core duties changes within employer?
yes if the SOC code changes, unless your salary will be £152,100 or more
(2) Is this the same as filling out a new Tier 2 application form - The BRP one if applying in country?
yes

(3) Can an employee continue working with same employer even after core duties change till a decision is made on the visa? What happens if a new Tier 2 General visa is not issued with the SOC code change - would the employee need to be demoted?
your current leave continues under the conditions it was granted, i.e. for the lower level job, until a decision is made on the application. If the application is refused, and you still have valid leave, you can continue in the lower level job.
Frankly this is a bit worrying as I am being fast tracked for promotion with almost 45% pay hike and I am worried I will not be allowed to work with my employer once the core duties change.... Truly a dilemma.
