In brief, the points system has re-categorized over 80 different routes to employment and education in the UK to just five tiers:
Tier 1: highly skilled individuals (previously HSMP).
Tier 2: skilled workers with a job offer to fill gaps in the UK labour force.
Tier 4: International non-EU students wanting to come to the UK to study including student nurses.
Tier 5: youth mobility and temporary workers.
Migrant workers and students must gain points to qualify for each specific tier before they can apply for permission to enter, or remain in, the UK with a second UK passport. Points are awarded, depending on the tier, based on the qualifications, experience, age, earnings, maintenance and language competence of the candidate.
You can check if you have enough points to qualify by carrying out a self assessment of eligibility online on the using the points-based calculator on the UK Border Agency website.
Under the points-based system, the UK Border Agency will decide who is admitted or allowed to stay in the UK. In order to assess this, the migrant will need to provide evidence of a sponsoring employer or educational institution in the UK licensed by the UK Border Agency.
The UK has a population of 60 million and is the world’s fifth largest economy.
The UK remains one the most popular destination for international students, which adds £40 billion to the economy, according the Home Office figures. The Government has recently updated its official Shortage Occupations list for Tier 2 of the points-based system for migration to the UK.
