HSMP extension / Tier 1 query

Post by sri_ray » Wed Apr 23, 2008 8:10 pm

Friends,

Amazing forum! This is my first post here but I will try and contribute as much as I can.

I have been here on a HSMP for over a year now and am due to go in for my extension in December 2008. I am changing jobs, 30/04 being the last day with my current employer, and the start date with my new employer being 06/05. Will the fact that I will be between jobs for 5 days affect my extension/Tier 1 visa in any way?

Thanks in advance for all responses

Regards,
Ray

As long as you meet the financial criteria for renewal, it doesn't matter if you have periods where you're not working. You will be fine.

Good luck in the new job.
