The Skilled Worker Visa UK is one of the most common routes for skilled workers to come to the UK for employment. Formerly known as the Tier 2 (General) visa, it allows individuals to take up a job offer from a UK employer with a sponsor license. To qualify, applicants must meet specific criteria, including having a job offer from a licensed sponsor, demonstrating English language proficiency, and meeting minimum salary requirements. The Skilled Worker Visa offers a pathway to settlement in the UK, with the possibility of applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain after a certain period of continuous residence and employment.
