Tier 1 General : how many years 2 or 3 for the first time

Post by Bharath » Sun Jul 20, 2008 9:03 am

Hello All : I was curious how many years they give the visa for general tier 1 for the first time : is it 2 years or 3 years.

I think the total number of years for first time + extension is 5 years but do not know the breakup between first time and extension.

can somebody please let me know.

thanks for your reply with links.

Am i reading it right, looks like they have changed it to 3 years where as for HSMP it was 2 years initially.

Please confirm as i just want to be sure as my plans are really based on number of years.

It is 3 years..correct
