Skilled worker - want to leave job but stay in the UK

Post by Dansito » Fri Jul 07, 2023 12:21 pm

Hi I'm Dan.

My girlfriend is from Bangladesh but she went to uni in Australia and lived there for 10 years. She then came to the UK on the 2 year visa, where we met. After 2 years her work sponsored her as a skilled worker for the extra 3 years. We are 1 year into those extra 3 years but she is not enjoying her job at all and really want to leave. We have been living together for just over a year and are aware that once we have lived together for 2 years we can apply for a visa but that is 9 months away and she really can't stay in her job much longer.

Barring getting a new job where they would sponsor her and barring getting married, what are our options?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
