From my understanding, Global Talent visa has two categories: Exceptional Talent and Exceptional Promise. The main difference between them is that you can apply for ILR after 3 years under Exceptional Talent but you need to wait for 5 years under Exceptional Promise. Based on you letter, you have gotten exceptional promise since you have applied for it (not sure if there is such a thing as global promise). To the best of my knowledge, it does not specify which category you are in the BRP, but if you want to apply for ILR in the future, you need to show tech nation letter as the proof of if you are under Exceptional talent or promisehomeslicemcg wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2020 3:44 pmThis March I was endorsed by Tech Nation for a Global Talent visa. I had applied under the Global Promise avenue, and when I received the endorsement I got this message, "Tech Nation has advised that you meet its criteria for Exceptional Promise and I am therefore satisfied that you can be endorsed under Global Talent." Which I was thriled about, because I had gotten Global Promise.
After months of delay from lockdown, I have finally gotten through stage two. However on both my application update and my BRP, there is no mention of Global Promise (only "Your application as a Global Talent migrant has been successful," in the email or "Global Talent Leave to Reamain" on my BRP).
Is this just a part of the rebranding of the visa category, that they call all recipients Global Talent? It's just a bit confusing as there is no mention of the word "promise" other than that one line from the endorsement phase, and no mention of the added 2 years for IRL in the restrcitions section of the approval letter. THANKS!
Congrats on getting the Global Talent Visa!homeslicemcg wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2020 5:24 pmOkay thank you. I do wish that they would put that in writing on documents other than just the endorsement.
Thank you! I had an 130 day delay in between submitting stage 2 and giving my biometrics because of lockdown and the IDV App (which I opted out of when I could). It was an electronic letter that confirmed both the endorsement and the successful application. I made my app in country, as I switched from a Tier 2.ryno wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2020 5:51 pmCongrats on getting the Global Talent Visa!homeslicemcg wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2020 5:24 pmOkay thank you.

Do you mind sharing your timelines? When did you go for biometrics and when did you receive your decision letter?
Was it an electronic letter and did it confirm that you were successful?
Thanks!
That is not true. Please don't mislead forum members with incorrect information.
