Fyi, it's actually fine to apply with another employer and have them issue another COS on your behalf. Anyway, they can still use that COS for another applicant who wishes to apply later. So don't worry about applying with another employer and have both of them apply for separate COS's on your behalf. This was actually suggested to me by another employer I was applying for.

Hi! I can totally relate to what you what you are going through right now. Like you, I also had to wait for a few months before finally deciding to transfer to another employer. As it turned out, my previous employer wasn't able to post my job, which was required by the home office to issue a COS. In short, it was my previous employer's fault that my COS got rejected. Luckily for me, a friend was able to refer me to another employer, which was able to submit an application for COS at the last minute. Any later than that, then some of my documents would have already expired (NBI, UKVI). As to your case, I highly suggest that you talk to your employer about your COS. A little pressure on them wouldn't hurt. Your COS was supposed to be released before the end of May, since it was submitted before 5 May. Also, keep yourself open to other employers which may have a spare COS on them. Best of luck!

Hi bro! I would highly suggest that you post your concern on a new thread. As I understand it, your issue is about visa processing from another country, Saudi Arabia in your case, to UK. I'm pretty sure there are other applicants who went through the same course as you. Hopefully, your post will give you and others the answer that you need. Best of luck!

Hello! As you may know, applications for COS that's submitted after the 5th of the month will be processed on the 11th of the following month. So in your case, you can expect it to be released after the 11th of April. The usual dates of release are between the 18th and 25th of the month. However, that is if there are no problems with your agency or the home office. In our case, we've been waiting for more than a few months already to no avail. Hopefully you dont end up like one of us. It can get really frustrating for sure. Best of luck!

Still nothing. I'm actually considering withdrawing my application too. My agency has stopped responding to my emails. Very frustrating.

Hi! Any update about your COS's?

Hi! Since when have you been waiting for the COS? I've been waiting for mine since January.

I'm actually considering that too. My agency has also stopped responding to my emails. And it's tough because their replies somehow shows that they're acting on this delay. Anyway, I pray our COS's would come soon. For now, let's just trust that everything is in God's timing. I wish you all the best in this, klowee. :)

Please keep me posted if you finally got your CoS. I'll do the same here. Good luck!

I feel u. They said that CoS's are awarded after every 11th of the month, and now 2 of it had already passed and still no update. Have you tried asking your agency to pursue other options? I've read of a one-day and 10-day processing which cost a little extra. I think that's what my gf's agency did. She got her CoS about 10 days after she received her dl.

Good to hear that I'm not alone in this one. Thanks!

Hi guys! So I just got my decision letter on January 19, 2018 and I am now on the last steps of my registration for UK. My employer told me that they submitted my application for CoS on that same month. However, it is now already March 21 and I am still yet to hear about the results of my CoS. My girlfriend's CoS came just a few days after she got her decision letter on January. She flew to London last March 2. Can anyone please give me an idea about why there is a delay with my CoS? And also, my IELTS UKVI expires on May. I badly need any advice and assurances I can get at this point. Thank you!
