The latest immigration rules in the UK have presented obstacles for prospective immigrants and students. The Conservative Party, led by Rishi Sunak, enacted various stringent immigration laws to lower the immigration rate to the UK. An extensive summary of the visa alternatives for workers and students interested in studying in the UK is provided in this article.
A disputed deportation plan to send illegal immigrants to Rwanda, the removal of international student's ability to travel to the UK with their families, and the prohibition on care workers from bringing their dependents or family to the UK were some of the major measures put into place.
There are still plenty of opportunities accessible for interested students and workers despite the rigorous requirements.
Students who wish to pursue undergraduate, graduate, or research programs in the UK can apply for a student visa. The application process requires the student to confirm acceptance for studies, a license from the educational provider. With a few extra months added on, the student visa will be valid for the whole academic program.
Foreign individuals with a valid skilled worker visa can work in the UK for an approved firm. The candidate must receive a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) from the employer, including a work description. The Skilled Worker Visa holders are also permitted to work in the UK's territorial waters such as the Channel Islands, and the Isle of Man.
Spouses or family members of government-sponsored students may apply for a dependant visa if the student is accepted into a course that lasts longer than six months, particularly a doctorate or other higher degree program that involves research. This will go into effect on January 1st, 2024.
Finally, after completing their degree, generally, two years for regular graduates and three years for PhD holders, international graduates from UK universities are permitted to remain for a certain period under the Graduates Route Visa and applicants must be in the UK when applying. Applicants would choose to apply for another type of visa, such as a skilled worker visa, after the Graduate Route Visa deadline.
