doctor in training

my passport was stamped with the new tier 1 general visa .. which states that im not allowed to work as a doctor in training .. is this the same for all other applicants ?? does any one has the same statement in his visa??

you can;t work as a doctor in training under tier 1. They have taken it out of the shortage list bec there are too many doctors in the UK and not enough jobs.

Had you read the policy guidance carefully, you would have noted that this rule is applicable for all Tier 1 holders subject to the following condition:

(iii) no employment as a doctor in training, unless the applicant is:
(1) in the UK and has, or has last been granted, entry clearance or leave to enter or remain as a Highly Skilled Migrant - and that grant was not subject to a condition prohibiting employment as a doctor in training - or as an Innovator or as a Postgraduate Doctor or Dentist;
(2) in the UK and has, or has last been granted, entry clearance or leave to remain as a Tier 1 (General) Migrant and that grant was not subject to a condition prohibiting employment as a doctor in training; or
(3) has submitted with this application a valid Highly Skilled Migrant Programme Approval Letter, where the application for that approval letter was made on or before 6 February 2008.
