Changing conditions on my existing visa
Hi,
I am changing employers. Has anyone changed their conditions on their visa since the visa rules changed in June 2014? VFS are telling me I need all the documentation that you need for making a new visa eg. police certificates. I start my new job on 1st December. Last time I changed my employer all I needed was my new contract. Anyone been in this situations?
Thanks!

However, if you are employed under a scarce skill quota visa, you can change employer without notifying them. See here (section 9):
