Re: I have Work Visa issue with employer

I think your advisor is directing you to be sponsored by your own company as a skilled worker. It is possible to do that however the company will have to gain a sponsor licence first. It is not an impossible way to achieve a way to remain but it is not an easy way either. What are the chances of ...

Re: SWV change in employer - question on break between jobs - advice needed

Not going to be an issue. Technically the new employer should inform UKVI that your start date has changed, what UKVI don't know is not going to impact them.

Re: Carer VIsa renewal

As your employer has not honoured the salary stated on your previous COS they are in breach of their sponsor duties. When the Home Office notices the salary you have been paid they will start to question the reason for continued sponsorship and if the role is a genuine vacancy. I am assuming you are ...

Re: what are the negatives when applying for skilled worker visa if on made an application for FLR

It does not make any difference to the Sponsor application process. If they get a licence and you are doing a qualifying role at the appropriate salary then they can offer you a COS. If you applied for FLR before your visa expiry date you can carry on working under the gradate work conditions. The ...

No - it all falls under the Skilled Worker visa regime. All your previous years under the care visa will count towards ILR.

Re: Incorrectly selected 'Yes' to 'Is <partner's> s job on the immigration salary list?'

My advice is not to withdraw an application because the wrong fee has been paid. In the majority of cases you can send a supplementary letter explaining the error and / or the Home Office will contact you to ask for the full fee. The full fee has to be paid before an application can even proceed to ...

Re: Application for sponsors license

Wont be a problem, just make sure the job role you want to fill is eligible and that you meet the minimum salary threshold. What business sector are you in? There is a good chance if it is fast food the licence will not be granted unless it is management role.

Your honesty will go a long way is pushing the application to a grant then not declaring it.

It is all depends on the wording on the visa cancellation letter whether you are subject to ban on returning and for what period of time. It would be reasonable, based on the circumstances described, that you would be banned for 1 year. As to returning to the UK as a general point. It is not going ...

Re: Asylum (working conditions)

The Home Office do not contact employers in these circumstances. It is up to the employer to monitor the individuals right to work. The employer should be regularly checking with ECS on a 6 month rotation to ensure the employee has the right to work.

If the child safeguarding issue is resolved then his conviction should not come into the equation. You have declared the conviction at each stage, there is really nothing the Home Office can do to to prevent the visa being granted if all other requirements are met.

You are required to inform the Home Office for any period of leave beyond 28 days.

Re: Global Talent to Tier 1

Tier 1 Ent route ILR is a major gathering of documents way beyond say a skilled worker ILR application.

It is all the same type of documentation you submitted for the extension obviously reflecting the current position of the company etc.
