Notify UKVI of change in T2 employer?

[scruffykeith]

Hi all,

I've been trying to find more info online but am having no luck;

I'm changing my current skilled worker visa to be employed under a new skilled worker sponsorship/ employer, and understand I need to notify the home office of this change 10 days prior to leaving my initial sponsor

My question is, how do I notify UKVI appropriately? My current employer doesn't see anywhere to do this in the SMS... is there a particular email address I should notify or a number to call? My employer and I are at a loss here, any help would be much appreciated.

There is nothing that you have to do. It is your employer that has to notify UKVI that you have ceased employment within 10 days AFTER your have left. The employer does this through the SMS system. It is not the visa holders responsibility to notify UKVI.

It is done on the SMS through 'change of migrant' or similar option under the Sponsor management tab. They should read the sponsor guidance. It is THEIR responsibility.

It is found under Sponsorship Duties, then Report Migrant Activity.

You must update your leave before starting work for a new employer.
