Incountry PSW to Tire 2

[rahul12345]

Hi,

>Those not already in Tier 1 (General) or a prePBS predecessor category will not be able to switch into it after 6 April 2011. This includes those with existing leave to enter or remain in the Tier 1 (Post Study Work) category or its predecessor categories, and those in Tier 4. They will not be able to switch into Tier 1 (General), but will be permitted to switch into Tier 2 (General). The allocation of a CoS for the purpose of such a switching application will not count towards the annual limit in 2011/12 nor will it be subject to the RLMT where the worker is switching from a Post-Study Work category and has been in post for six months or more.

For issuing unrestrictive COS, RLMT is not required anyway. Assuming that existing In country PSW visa holders can be allocated unrestrictive COS, is the condition "been in post for six months or more" confusing?

What all does another category involve? PSW visa holders? Student visa holders?

Regards.
