Hii Guys

there are some more good news also for IT/Teaching profession. UK Govt is considering review of its shortage list and considering allowing unlimited number of IT/Teachers once they complete the review of its shortage list.

The new structure would allow an unrestricted number of non-EU professional to enter the UK in the acute shortage areas like IT, engineering and teaching.

https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/nr ... 619479.cms

Let us hope this is also effective from july.
Please do not go by this source. This is their interpretation of the government policy which was announced on 15 and don't believe anything has changed then what we know already. They are just assuming that people will get through more easily (because now with Doctors and Nurses excluded from the Tier 2 cap) this frees up those RCoS which they would have received earlier. I highly doubt the the "unrestricted" word in the article.

If they are applying under soc code 2136 this means under sol. So how come i am rejected or refused due to points?
Not all jobs under 2136 are shortage occupation!! Only very specific jobs and qualifying companies can use SOL for 2136.
How can we know about such companies and jobs, because Appendix K doesn't mention anything about this?
It mentions very clearly WHICH jobs are SOL under this SOC and what a qualifying company is. Posted AGAIN below from the March RCoS thread!!

2136 Programmers and software development professionals

Only the following jobs in this occupation code:

Senior developer employed by a qualifying company, where the job requires a person with a minimum of five years’ relevant experience and demonstrable experience of having led a team.

The following jobs in visual effects and 2D/3D computer animation for the film, television or video games sectors:

software developer
shader writer
games designer
The following jobs in the electronics system industry:
driver developer
embedded communications engineer

Thats the only Software dev related occupation listed, I think.
to add on...In this Appendix “qualifying company” means a company which:
(a) has obtained permission from the Home Office to issue a Certificate of Sponsorship in respect of the relevant job on the basis that the job is included on the Shortage Occupation List and the company:
(i) is licensed as a sponsor for the purposes of Tier 2 of the Points Based System,
(ii) at the time of obtaining such permission, employs between 20 and 250 employees (inclusive), or employs fewer than 20 employees and has provided a letter from the Department for International Trade, confirming that the Department has been working with the company and supports the application in relation to its trade or investment activity,
(iii) is not more than 25% owned by a company which has one or more other establishments in the UK and one of those establishments employs more than 250 employees; and
(iv) has not been established in the UK for the purpose of supplying services exclusively to a single company or company group in the UK; and
(b) will have no more than ten Tier 2 (General) Migrants working for it at any one time in jobs to which the requirement to be employed by a qualified company applies, if all Certificates of Sponsorship in respect of such jobs lead to a grant of leave as a Tier 2 (General) Migrant.

Yes, I completely agree with voldy1990. The newspaper has misunderstood the immigration related changes UK HO released recently.

45 points refusal!
Just got an email from HR confirming refusal, as it did not meet the minimum points. Have been trying since Jan. Was on 36 points earlier and then raised to 45 in April but still no luck. Had to come back to India as previous visa expired end of last month. Not sure when this wait will end and if employers will have that kind of patience.

Yes understand your point, but it seems it is altogether new news because it has been reported in almost all the news paper. Please check the links below.

Please check the links given.I believe this is not as same as removal of nurses and doctors and its favorable effect on other professions(40% efffect due to removal). There are lot of IT occupations under shortage list and government wants to review this and they dnt want any restrictions on those jobs. That is my understanding after analysis of all the news headlines given in the link. Hope for the best :-)

Agreed that the news on review of shortage list is new. But statements like UK Govt is considering review of its shortage list and considering allowing unlimited number of IT/Teachers once they complete the review of its shortage list are quite misleading as you would know only highly skilled / specialised jobs make it to the shortage list and it will never apply entirely to any given profession. Thanks for sharing the news though. Cheers!

Dear Moderator & Others,

I am sorry to ask this silly question, but understanding this Appendix J & K thing fails me! :cry:
Can anyone please tell me if job code: 2423 is under shortage occupation?
Thanks.

UK has raised the minimum points requirement again for the month of June. I had 50+ points and would have made the May cut if my application would have been in on time but I just got notice that I was rejected for June applications for NOT meeting the minimum points requirement.

I have heard that the minimum points threshold will continue to be raised each month as there is considerable pressure to lessen immigration.

Sorry to hear the news, this is quite unfortunate in spite the delay. Can you please confirm what was your salary range? I am assuming it would be 55k+?

Salary was 45K non shortage
I can't remember whether or not the points were 51 or 55 but I do know my employer said we should be fine for June because we would have made the cut for May; obviously that is not the case.

Thank you for your update. Can you please elaborate on your points? What do you mean by 50+? Did you have 50? Also who said that minimum points threshold will continue to rise? An immigration consultant? Very concerned as I'm waiting since April with 50 points...

With 45k salary, you have 45 points. Sorry that you didn't make it this month.
Just a little piece of advice: If you are not sure of your points and get rejected, please mention this in your post. It can create chaos and heartbreak otherwise to all others waiting for their results! Hope you will understand. Thanks.

UK has raised the minimum points requirement again for the month of June. I had 50+ points and would have made the May cut if my application would have been in on time but I just got notice that I was rejected for June applications for NOT meeting the minimum points requirement.

I have heard that the minimum points threshold will continue to be raised each month as there is considerable pressure to lessen immigration.
What was your salary and is the job in the shortage list?

Thanks


Salary was 45K non shortage
I can't remember whether or not the points were 51 or 55 but I do know my employer said we should be fine for June because we would have made the cut for May; obviously that is not the case.
With 45k salary, you have 45 points. Sorry that you didn't make it this month.
Just a little piece of advice: If you are not sure of your points and get rejected, please mention this in your post. It can create chaos and heartbreak otherwise to all others waiting for their results! Hope you will understand. Thanks.
You have 45 points.

I sent an email to employer to clarify refused or rejected . They replied refused so this means refused due to points. 45k salary . 3 attempts and they decided to withdraw my offer :( can i convince them to try again next month in case minimum required points dropped ? Or lose hope?

Dear Moderator & Others,

I am sorry to ask this silly question, but understanding this Appendix J & K thing fails me! :cry:
Can anyone please tell me if job code: 2423 is under shortage occupation?
Thanks.
Not sure why you cant check yourself. SOC 2423 is non shortage.

Please DO NOT send me a PM for immigration advice. I reserve the right to ignore the PM and not respond.
