My company (The Group) that I was working went into administration, and the branch was taken over by management buyout and changed name.
My 5 years work permit expires on 7.7.2010 and the company went into administration on 30.6.2010.
I have applied for Permanent Residency on 7.6.2010.
My question is will this jepodise my PR application, do I need to ask my management buyout employer to inform Home Office about this.
Your reply will be appreciated- if anyone in this cirmustances please asso share your view,
Many thanks
It looks from this that you applied for PR too late. It would appear that the validity of your visa ended 30 June with the demise of the old company and takeover by the new one. Therefore, you probably should have been out a week before you applied for PR. Also, you don’t give any info on your grounds for applying for PR. The end of your work permit – and the company which applied for it – is no grounds for PR, so how did you apply?
If you were rehired by the new company, they had to apply for a new work permit. If they didn’t, and you are working, it appears you are doing so illegally.
In short, it looks like you have a bunch of violations and big trouble here. If so, "get out of Dodge" most urgently. You need to return home in a hurry. And withdraw that PR application.
Don’t worry, this England, nobody will bother.

interesting…
Untill your PR/ILR is approved… you don’t have a visa to work on, do you ?
Unless you know otherwise, I don’t see how applying for PR extends a work visa.
Yes, IF you got PR then you would be able to work.
and at the time of application you were working and were 100% legal.
and presumeably had done the required 5 years working…
The administration change happened after that.
But…until the PR is approved…. not convinced that the work visa is extended.
The PR will be issued at a later date (if and when approved)….not backdated.
This is not like applying for a renewal/extension, or a spouse visa from a fiance visa.
If you continue to be employed, that is a good thing.
However, your visa needed extending..
and if the visa was dependant on being employed by a specific sponsoring company…
then the new HR needs to work with you and the UKBA to update them with the management changes.. .and also extend the visa.
What have you and the company said to the UKBA ?
And YES. I think the company HR needs urgently to update the UKBA..
a) for your visa extension/sponsorship.
b) because they maybe breaking the law and be liable for a 10 000 pound fine.
basically if your had not applied for PR and the comapny administration/management had not changed… what visa would be on now. ? Then that is what you should be on… as of now.
The PR is about residence… not work.
When you get PR.. thenm there are some added benefits.
It is not one for the other.
Get the comapny to do the talking, and ‘explain’ that in the admin changeover, things got lost.. and they are rapidly tidying up and need the UKBA assistance.. to update/responsor your work permit.
You could always ring the helpline/contact center…
as an employers admin making an enquiry (be ready for a company name …use the old one ?)…and ask what happens
- when you change ownership…
- and as it happens one of our employees has applied for ILR, and is about to expire is work permit.. do they need still to extend it.. or are they covered/.
