Correction, I do not see such requirement under the rules now. So as long as you have a letter from your sponsor, you should be good. Make sure just that it is reasonably recent All you need to know about the sponsor letter for Skilled Worker route Thanks very much @zimba for your update on your ...
Hi Forum, Does anyone knows how far in advance (how early) can the employer issue an Employer letter to support ILR application? I read somewhere about letter shouldn't date more than 28 days from application date, but does anyone has applied to ILR and provided employer letter with longer date than ...
Has anyone read this article on gov.uk website? https://www.gov.uk/government/news/immigration-white-paper-to-reduce-migration-and-strengthen-border The article mentions under 'Earned Settlement' that 'further details to be set out to Parliament by the end of the year'. Maybe that means that changes ...
To better explain: 'Cohorts' might refer to people who are already in the UK under certain immigration categories (i.e. SWV, Family visa, etc...) and entered the UK within a given timeframe. So people who entered the UK up to a 'certain date' might still be able to apply to ILR under the 5 years ...
That is a good observation. However, the phrase,'for those cohorts' implies that some people who are already in the UK, might still be eligible to apply through the 5 years route. To me the word cohort might refer to certain years. As in if you were in the UK up to a 'certain date' you might be able ...
Dear Community, I have a question in relation to ILR application. I first entered UK in September 2019 on student visa and then I switched to skilled worker visa in October 2022. On the ILR application, there is the following question:"When did you first enter the UK? This is the date you entered ...
Hi @SG25 Thanks very much for your response. I have an additional question about Biometric data (Fingerprints). I noticed from one of your other posts that you mentioned booking TLS Contact appointment. Given that you are switching from Skilled Worker Visa. When you applied for GTV stage 2 ( did ...
My stage 1 took 1 month and stage 2 is still going on. Hope it helps.

Hi SG25
Many thanks for your kind response. Just one more question please, did you apply from inside or outside the UK? And Best of Luck with your Stage 2 application!
Hi, It took me one week to get email from home office that they sent it to BA and then 3 more weeks to get the final endorsement email. All this happened in last one month. Hope that helps. Best wishes, SG Hi SG25 Thanks very much for your response. Would you mind sharing your timeline for Stage 1 ...
Hi Everyone, Does anyone knows how long it takes to get an email notification from the Home Office about GTV application documents being referred to the Endorsing Body (i.e. British Academy) once you submit your stage 1 application? It has been 4 days and nothing is communicated by the Home Office ...
Further to my first post. Could anyone please post a recent timeline for acquiring Global Talent Visa Route 4: Peer review, preferably with British Academy?
Hello Everyone, I am considering an application for Global Talent Visa - Route 4: Peer Review, and I was wondering if anyone here have applied and been successful on this route. If possible you can provide a template for the Letter of Recommendation. Also any other advise in terms of timeline for ...
Hi DrUni, Yes, I applied as a lecturer- not a Senior Lecturer, and the only reference to leadership was that 'Dr XXX will direct or lead an individual or team research project or programme of work'. They then went on to list the earlier shared items as part of the role. Hi hope071, Thank you very ...
Hello Dr Uni, The endorsing body was BA, and applied as an exceptional promise. It was submitted as a standard application, and I know people that even got stage 2 decisions faster than myself. In terms of specifics, the HR listed the following: Dr XXX is expected to dedicate 40% of work to ...
Hello, I recently applied and was successful for GTV under route 1 as a lecturer (I was previously under skilled worker visa for 2 years in another uni). My University's letter explicitly stated that I 'will direct or lead an individual or team research project or programme of work. As part of this ...
Can anyone please share their experience for applying to GTV using a lecturer position/offer? especially in regards to criteria of leadership. Any comments are very much appreciated.
Hi Anon123B and thank you f0or your response. If I get 5 years with new employer and I qualify for IRL within 4 years from that visa (counting the one year from the first visa). Wouldn't the total of visa applications be two? - first application I already made and I got three years and the second ...
And final point is I might switch to a new employer only having been on one year of Skilled worker Visa so I wouldn't have completed the full three years with the old employer.
