Tier 2 minimum hours

Post by jitsingh » Mon Sep 21, 2020 10:10 pm

Hi,
What are the minimum amount of hours I need to work per week to be eligible for ILR application from Tier 2 General? Let's say I am on Tier 2 general visa and earning £35000 per year but I am only working 30hours per week (as opposed to 37.5), Am I still eligible to apply for the ILR (after 5years)?

Yours faithfully,

It depends on the soc code of your job as well.

At the time of ILR your soc code, number of hours mentioned in the cos & what you get paid you need to take into consideration + the minimum salary level for ILR at that stage. As long as you meet the above criteria with your prorated hours you should be fine.
My advice is based on personal research/experience, so pls check relevant UKVI sources.
