Sure we'll help you out in any way we can. We just love other people coming over on those visas and under-cutting us all with stupidly low rates.

IF U CAN NOT HELP ME OR ANSWER MY QUERIES THEN WHY BOTHER REPLYING? TAKE YOUR POSTS TO ANOTHER TOPIC MAYBE?

There are some umbrella's which market themselves towards Tier 2'ers. Basically they operate just like a normal umbrella, except they will pay for a fast track visa (usually in the region of £2-3000 in costs for them). They recoup this by charging considerably higher fees than a 'normal' umbrella, usually 15% - and they put you through PAYE.

Whether that's what the OP is talking about - hard to say.



Of course you will at that rate. Hence why you're getting irate responses here. You are probably undercutting the normal market rate.

However, these umbrella's also have a minimum day rate you need to be working on - in order for them to recoup their costs. 190 may not be enough.

However it is also illegal for an umbrella to do this...

You have to be paid for the company you are working for which puts Umbrellas out.

i have heard of companies that just do the sponsoring but i suppose they take a %age or other fee. I think it is dodgy but probably borderline legal. Possibly it is one of those issues that hm gov don't want to push back to hard for fear of being called racist!

yes they take a fee. Completely legal as well. U have to earn a certain amount and be at a certain skilled level

[northernladuk]

yea, their rates are actually 250+..this is cos they also have a percentage which you pay to them, minus your regular tax. so in order to still have some decent pay left they require a high daily rate...plus, it goes without saying that the higher you earn the more skilled your job function is. hence the 250+ jobs to ensire u are actually in a ''highly skilled'' role which the Tier 2 requires.....I do not understand the irate responses here!!have i said summat wrong?

You are getting irate responses because the influx of indians in to our market willing to work at what are ridiculous rates in the UK is pushing us out of work and pushing the rates down and frankly we are all a bit pissed off with it so we are not going to be too pleased with you asking questions how you can bend the rules to stay here when you are not officially allowed to. What is decent pay to you is not to us.

and is techincally illegal as you are not being paid by the company you are working for. They are just escaping the law which will one day close them down just as it did with the scam courses and universities. Go with one of these companies and wake up every morning wondering if you are going to get deported today.
