Quote: bobsmyuncle "No, not reapply for a work permit, just change the details of the Employer.
Work permits are relevant to the person's qualifying skills appropriate to the employer's trade.
He was approved for a work permit as a rugby league coach in the UK when he joined St Helens.
This carried on when he joined the Bulls, only the employer changed and would have been registered on his work permit.
The same would apply to his joining bulls Newco.
So its just an administrative thing'"
Does that affect his right to stay in the country? Ie can he only stay whilst in employment?. Thinking in terms of the as yet unconfirmed contact he's had re his immigration status mentioned earlier in the thread.
