  • UK Skilled Worker Visa is introduced in January 2021. A skilled worker visa is going to replace Tier 2 Visa in the UK. We will talk about the differences between skilled worker visas and tier 2 visas in the UK and what these changes mean for international students in the UK. Work visa sponsorship will be required if you will not be switching to post-study work visa, but the new point-based system does have many advantages for international students in the UK in 2021. So in this video with the help of Yash Dubal from AY & J solicitors, we answer many questions on skilled immigration to the UK for international students.

      When I have the time, I do add English subtitles, but it is not always possible as it is very time consuming. I do have consultations on my website that can help you decide which course could be best for your profile. I am not able to recommend a course based on a CZcams comment, your chances of obtaining Tier 2 job does not only depend on the course you study.
