What is a Skilled Worker Visa?
A UK Skilled Worker Visa will allow you to come to the UK for up to five years to work for an employer with a valid Sponsor Licence. It replaces the Tier 2 General Visa.

To obtain a Skilled Worker Visa, you will need to show evidence that:

- Your potential employer has a UK Sponsor Licence, and
- You can prove you can read, write, speak, and understand English to at least level B1 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) scale.
Can I apply for Settlement once my Skilled Worker Visa expires?
Yes, once you have completed five years on a UK Skilled Worker Visa you may be able to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain.
