Tier 2 Dependent Doctor work restrictions

[Vrindaaroraverma]

Hi All!

I am a doctor ,currently on tier 2 dependent Visa.I have been unemplyoyed and was studying for MRCOG to obtain GMC to be able to work in UK. Now that I have finally got MRCOG and have sent my application for processing to GMC ,I started looking at NHS JOBS. I now have a number of questions and am very confused .

1.My BRP and VISA say restricted work,no doctor/dentist training. I want to know what restricted work means ?
I think I am allowed to work as a doctor but in case I want to do an Advanced training module (a training number is not needed) will I be able to on this visa?

2.The NHS JOBS site asks if I have some job restriction on my visa,do I answer yes or no?

3.If I continue being a dependent ,will I be able to apply for ILR?

Please do reply .Am despereate for answers.Thank you in advance!

Were you finally able to work as a doctor despite BRP work restrictions? Please help as I am finishing my MRCPCH then will register with GMC...but then my newly issued BRP card has this restriction on it...first time I got my brp card it had no restriction to work...I'm confused now as to if I can work as a doctor.
