T2 and T5 transition arrangements

The transition arrangements for T2 and T5 are given at  http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/aboutthechanges/
These are not generous terms and if you are affected, you should take IMMEDIATE STEPS NOW to protect your status in the UK.

Also this note extracted from an ILPA advisory:  if you are planning to switch out of WHM into UP, SEE A LAWYER.  This switch is now complex and you are at serious risk by submitting an unmanaged application.  This advisory does not affect many people here, but there's lots and lots of lurkers who it does affect. 

thanks. I know a couple people on WH who this will affect.
