Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for the Skilled Worker UK Visa, applicants must meet the following criteria:

Job Offer: You must have a confirmed job offer from a UK employer holding a valid sponsor licence.
Occupational Level: Only degree-level occupations (RQF Level 6) are now eligible for sponsorship. Care workers and senior care workers can no longer be newly sponsored, unless they were employed in the UK before March 11, 2024.
Salary Threshold: The minimum salary requirement has increased to £29,000 per year or the relevant job’s going rate, whichever is higher.
English Language Proficiency: Applicants must demonstrate competency in English, typically through an approved test or equivalent qualification.
Financial Requirement: You must prove you have sufficient funds to support yourself upon arrival in the UK.

Application Process

Applying for a Skilled Worker UK Visa requires careful preparation. Once you have a valid job offer and meet the eligibility requirements, you can submit your application online. Be aware that visa processing times may vary, and applications can take longer than previously estimated due to recent immigration policy changes.

Applicants must provide supporting documents such as:

Job offer letter
Proof of English language proficiency
Evidence of qualifications and work experience

Our team can assist you with every step of the application process, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience.

Family Sponsorship

While the Skilled Worker Visa previously allowed dependents to join visa holders, restrictions now apply to certain visa categories. Particularly for care workers, family members can no longer apply as dependents unless the worker was sponsored in the UK before March 11, 2024 and meets specific conditions.

Advantages of the Skilled Worker Visa

Career Growth: Gain access to high-demand job sectors in the UK, particularly in industries experiencing skill shortages.
Long-Term Stability: The visa is valid for up to five years, with an option for renewal and a pathway to permanent residency.
