Job Offer NHS - Skilled Worker Visa

Post by ska_abbas » Mon Jul 12, 2021 6:25 am

Hi There,

I have been offered a job at NHS and I am planning to apply for Skilled worker visa from Pakistan. Grateful, if someone can address following:

- Is it better to apply for personal visa first and once visa is granted, then apply for dependents visa (Wife and 2 Kids) OR is it safe to apply along with the main applicant
- Police Character Certificate is required for main applicant only or dependents as well
- I have Bachelors and Masters degrees from the UK, am I exempted from English language test or would I still need to sit in for IELTS

Thank you

I had hoped that someone would reply with a definite answer to my question.

Is it better to apply for personal and dependents visa altogether, or is it better to apply personal visa first and if it is granted, then apply for dependents visa? Can anyone please confirm what is the better strategy

Thanks

It makes absolutely no difference if you apply together or separately.

There is a question in the application form on applicant's UK Address?

If I put address of someone I know in the UK, do I need to provide an evidence from them confirming they are offering me a place i.e. a letter?

Do i then also need to share their job details, pay slips, etc?

Thank you for your prompt reply. I appreciate it1

If i put address of someone I know with out any letter or evidence from them, wouldn't that raise any concerns/suspicion in Entry Clearance Officer's mind?

As far as I am aware, there is no requirement to show proof of UK address for a skilled worker visa.
