如题。Tier 2工签不是有每年20700名额么。
之前我一直以为对所有人有效,所以对当年能收留我的东家感激不已。offer也没怎么挑挑拣拣,就接受了。
最近是别人找工作时,才尼玛发现这个限制似乎只对海外申请者和部分小公司有效。对于持已经持有长期tier 4签证的学生来说,找工作换tier 2,是不受这个名额限制的。顿时感觉当年亏了,应该再找找看的。
给大家提个醒。
UK Tier 2 (General) visas limited to 20,700
In April 2011 the coalition government introduced an annual limit of 20,700 on Tier 2 Visas, which is split into monthly limits. The quota for June was 1,650 visas which was reached just 11 days into the month.
The cap only applies to those who need a Tier 2 Restricted Certificate of Sponsorship; workers living outside of the UK who do not already have a long term UK visa allowing them to switch to a Tier 2 visa. Those exempted from the cap include:
Migrants on Tier 2 Intra-Company Transfer visas
Migrants applying to extend their Tier 2 visas
Migrants already in the UK under a visa category that allows them to switch to a Tier 2 visa.
Migrants filling vacancies paying £150,000 a year or more
Tier 2 Sports people and Ministers of Religion
