RLMT Exception

Post by red poltergeist » Thu Oct 20, 2016 4:01 pm

Hi I am a Tier 1 Entrepreneur(50k route from Tier 1 PSW),

The guidance says
You do not have to carry out a resident labour market test if a migrant you want to sponsor is applying for Tier 2 (General) leave in the UK and has, or was last granted leave to enter, or to stay in the UK under one of the following:
Tier 1 (Post-study work)
 Tier 1 (Graduate Entrepreneur)
 the International Graduates Scheme
 the Fresh Talent Working in Scotland Scheme
 the Science and Engineering Graduates Scheme

As I am not a Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur, will I be eligible for RLMT? What are my options then?

Your sponsor will then need to complete RLMT.
