United Kingdom Visa

United Kingdom which is also known as Great Britain has been the most sought out European Country for Immigration.

Indians have considered U.K as their second home, thanks to the flexible Immigration Laws and high standards of living, for decades many Indians have immigrated to the United Kingdom to start a new life.

U.K. allows people from across the world to live and work under different sub-class visas (formerly known as HSMP Visa) and various other category Visa’s based on applicant’s eligibility and skills. The points-based Scheme used to be the most preferred visa type for Highly skilled professionals and educated Indians to make their mark in UK and work and settle in there.

Skilled Immigration In U.K

The U.K Highly Skilled Migrant Program (HSMP) has been very successful since its introduction. HSMP or Tier-1 Visa to UK is a points-based immigration scheme. You need to score 80 points or more and meet the English language requirement in order to qualify as a highly skilled migrant.

Points are scored in four main areas:

An English Skills Assessment called IELTS is a mandatory part of the Immigration process.

The HSMP program is designed to allow highly skilled people to migrate to U.K to look for work or self-employment opportunities and it is different from the work permit arrangements because you do not need a specific job offer in the UK to apply. It is also different from business routes such as the Innovators scheme because you do not need a detailed business plan or create new jobs.

The Highly Skilled Migrant Program (HSMP) application can be made from within the country of your residence or you can also apply from inside the UK if you are in UK with Home Office permission. Individuals already in the UK may apply to switch into HSMP without leaving the country provided they have leave as a:

Work permit holder or Student who has successfully obtained a degree level qualification on a recognized degree course at either a UK publicly funded further or higher education institution or a bona fide UK private education institution which maintains satisfactory records of enrolment and attendance; or

Postgraduate doctor or a postgraduate dentist or trainee general practitioner; or

Working holidaymaker or International Graduates Scheme participant.

Family Immigration In U.K

UK Spouse Visa is a type of U.K Visa which can be filed only by the applicants who are married/committed to or in a relationship with a British Citizen or a settled person on PR visa. UK Spouse visas are sometimes mentioned as U.K Spousal Visa, U.K marriage Visa (as these terms are related to the word marriage) and at times even U.K wife visa or U.K husband.

A non- EEA (Economic European area) national can register for a spouse settlement visa to unite with their partner who is already a British Citizen or settled person. This is a settlement visa and the initial entry clearance takes around 33 months.
