Hi,

I currently hold a Tier2 visa and my ILR is due in a few months from now ( October 2023 ). The main company that I was employed at had created different branch for various reasons. With company name being [Name] Group Ltd and branch [Name] Services Ltd.

I was initially being paid via [Name] Group Ltd but later on it changed to [Name] Services Ltd .

The branches are still under the same management but registration numbers are different. I can still get the letter from the initial branch [Name] Group Ltd. But my salary slips and bank account deposits are under the [Name] Services Ltd.

I had previously asked them to inform via SMS, And the previous HR said to me that they have done so.

[Name] Services Ltd was added as a 'branch' of [Name] Group Ltd (a company under common control of the parent or 'head office'- and we've advised you are working at the branch.

But we never got a response to the said change and I totally forgot about the matter.

I can get the letter for ILR from the parent company but I have a fear that the discrepancies will be a major issue. I will be paying for my ILR and don't want this to be a bottleneck leading to refusal? Any clues as what should i be doing ?

Cheers

How you 'feel' is not important. Businesses often change their structure. As long as you are employed by the parent company and they updated the UKVI (without any objection from UKVI), I see no issue at all.

Thanks for your reply. Does the branch company shows up in SMS portal. I believe we never got an response from UKVI . So was wondering if there is a way to know that UKVI is aware of this change and have recorded it ?

Ukvi do not reply or respond to every sms update

You are overthinking. They will have access to all the sponsor details and notes etc.

Thanks for taking time and replying to my queries. Have a great weekend ahead. Cheers
