Switching from Tier 2 ICT Main to Tier 2 General Dependent

Post by sugar101 » Sat Jun 10, 2017 11:30 am

Hi, I am currently on a Tier 2 ICT Main long Term leave to remain in the UK and looking to switch as a Dependent on Tier 2 General leave to remain of my Spouse. I am applying online from within the UK since I am still working on a long Term assignment. What is the supporting documentation and cover letters/reference letters of myself and/or my spouse that I need to provide? My bank account meets the maintenance fund requirements. My current Tier 2 ICT Long Term visa (5 years altogether) expires in August 2017. My Spouse has just switched to a Tier General Main applicant (employee sponsored) from Tier 2 ICT Dependent (Main). Happy to answer any further questions.

Have you read the guidance notes or done any research? Plenty of topics on the forum covering questions.

Thanks for your response. I did read the guidance but needed some actual experience of what has worked in the past.

Hi there

I am looking to do the same thing - how did it go for you? Was your spouse able to switch from dependent to main applicant from within the UK?
