If it was a Work Permit, none. She should have felt the UK within 28 days of finishing work.

I'm not a WP guru but I think her new employer will have to make an out-of-country WP application, ur friend will need to apply for EC from her home country.

thanks for the reply: wanderer

Actually I am a bit worried in her situation that she's been out of job for the last or almost 2 months and the only valid visa she's having is the one with her previous employer. worried in a way that her work permit is not valid anymore and she is overstaying here or what? I am almost to the point to call the HO to ask an advice about her situation but I am worried that I might be involve in her case or what since she's staying in my house at the moment bec she's running out of money.

do you think how long her working visa valid while she's out of job and the previous employer need to report to the HO about her situation that she's no longer working with them etc..?

all advice are highly appreciated.

This query was discussed here a few weeks ago, when your friend had posted the question herself. She was advised at the time to get her new employer to apply for a WP on her behalf and had been warned that she'd have to make an out of country application for EC etc. She should count herself lucky that the HO has postponed the implementation of rules in relation to overstayers until 10/2008. She should stop dithering and follow the advice she has been given already..
