Hi there friends......
I am currently on a Tier 2 Sponsored Visa and working IN UK exactly last 2 years (exactly 2 years this week). I am planning to Switch to a Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa with the 200K requirement etc. However have questions. I would appreciate your input please. Believe me I emailed UK Visa and uk immigration and no answers. gov.uk said contact uk visa email and they are not replying at all
I really appreicate your answers in advance. thank you everyone!

My Situation:
- Currently on a Tier 2 Sponsored visa for last years
- planning to apply for Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa in March 2016
Questions:
- When I apply for the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa in March 2016 and I am successful, will they take my existing 2 years plus 4 months residency in UK with my Tier 2 Visa for the Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) UK residency for 5 year calculation when I apply for my ILR 3 years into the Tier 1 Entrepreneur route or will they IGNORE my Tier 2 residency and require me to stay in uk with the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa for FURTHER 5 Years (with the 2nd tier 1 entrepreneur visa renewal extension etc. Because if i will LOSE my tier 2 residency then i might as well stay in tier 2 and then apply for ILR after 3 more years
- If my Tier 1 Entrepreneur application is NOT successful, will this in anyway jeopardize my existing Tier 2 Visa? I will still have 8 months left on this before the tier 2 renewal but will my tier 1 application failure CANCEL my tier 2 visa also? (although the tier 2 is still valid) - i do not want to RISK my existing visa status
- For Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa i heard that they are very STRICT lately. any suggestions on how i can increase my success rate please?
thank you!
