How Do You Apply For A Visa To Work In The United Kingdom?
The tier 2 (skilled worker) visa is designed for foreigners interested in working as a resident in the United Kingdom. To become qualified for a tier 2 visa, you must already have a job offer from an employer in the UK that is willing to sponsor your immigration and help you obtain a certificate of sponsorship. Your occupation must also be approved under the recently developed points-based system before you can legally work and live in the UK. Establish an understanding of the points-based system (PBS). It manages the migration of prospective workers to the UK by awarding points according to how many sections of the application process are fulfilled. Use the self-assessment points calculator online (see the resources section) to learn how points are earned and what evidence is required with your application. Complete application form VAF9 on the UK Border Agency website with your basic information. Then use the results obtained from the calculator to print and complete Appendix 5. Ask
