Hi,

I am a Software Engg, in India and have got a job offer in UK. My UK employer has submitted for the Work permit in the home office on 19th August. Following are my queries:

1. Is it ok to resign from the present company in India after receiving work permit approval and prior to obtaining entry clearance?

If not, then following is my additional query:

2. I heard that the docs are submitted in VFS in India and they schedule an appointment after say 3-4 weeks. Now during this second appointment, if they keep the passport from me, can I go ahead and resign from my present organisation?

Thanks to all who reply, in advance,

1. It is much safer to resign after you get the EC

2. If they withhold you passport after the interview, it only takes a couple of days for the EC to arrive. Why would you not wait it out?
