Closed petition Increase the curtailment period when Tier 2 Visa holders lose their jobs

People on Tier 2 work visas depend on their continued employment to remain in the UK. If for anyone reason they lose their jobs, as is happening to many due to the economic downturn, they have 60 days to make a new visa application or leave the country. This isn't enough time. We want it increased.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
