Skilled Worker switching to dependent visa

[xsdas]

Hello members,

I am on skilled worker visa and planning to switch to dependent visa(My spouse also has skilled worker visa).

Can you please clarify on the below points

1. Can I continue to work while my dependent application is in progress?
2. Can I switch job while my dependent application is in progress?

Thanks a lot in advance!

1. Can I continue to work while my dependent application is in progress?

Yes, but only for the employer that sponsored your Skilled Worker visa.

2. Can I switch job while my dependent application is in progress?

No. While you have an application pending, your existing Skilled Worker visa conditions continue, meaning you can only work for your sponsor.
