From 27 November 2008 applicants who do not already have a valid work permit, and who wish to work in the UK must apply under the relevant tier (Tier 2 and Tier 5: Temporary worker). Details are in our INF21 to INF28 guidance.

Please note that no applications for work permits will be accepted after 26 November 2008....
