If you were granted entry clearance or leave to remain as Tier 2 sportsperson, you can apply for extension of your stay as a Tier 2 sportsperson before the expiry of leave.
You must make an extension application if you need to extend your leave and you are applying to continue in the same job for the same sponsor. You cannot apply for an extension if you are applying from outside the UK, or switching from another category, or changing employment. You must have a new Certificate of Sponsorship for your extension application. Your salary must be at least the same, or higher, than that shown on your Certificate of Sponsorship for your previous grant of leave.
