Overview
The Highly Skilled Migrant Programme has been very
successful since it's launch on 28th Jan 2002. This has now been replaced by the Tier 1 HSMP Visa.
The
points based scheme allows you to qualify for Tier 1 based on your qualifications,
past earnings, age and experience. The Tier 1 Visa
was designed to encourage the entry of people to the UK to seek employment
who are probably already earning a high salary and are very successful
in their home country.
Any
individual can apply; depending on your circumstances where you may apply
from will vary. Applications made in the UK will be scored against the
Tier 1 criteria but whether leave to remain is granted will also be determined
by your current immigration status.
How
you can qualify under the programme
To make a successful application you will need to
provide evidence that you score sufficient points in the categories and
demonstrate that you will be able to continue your career in the United
Kingdom. Please note that you do not have to score points in all categories
to qualify under the programme as long as you score at the minimum points
total required.
If
you think you may qualify visit the Tier 1 Visa calculator for a quick initial
assessment, a free service which will ask a few basic questions for a
simple way to assess your score. SkillClear will let you know if you qualify
for the programme and see if you would like to apply. Easy.
