Increased funds required for Tier 2 applications from 14 June 2012
On 15 March 2012, a written ministerial statement was laid in Parliament outlining a number of changes to the Immigration Rules.
From 14 June 2012, the personal savings you must have to support your Tier 2 (General) application will increase.
If you plan to make a Tier 2 application on or after 14 June 2012, you must ensure the correct funds are held in your account as soon as possible because the funds will need to have been held in your account for a consecutive 3 month period:
For applications received before 14 June 2012 |
For applications received on or after 14 June 2012 |
