I have recently been offered a Knowledge transfer partnership associate post in the UK. I want to apply for a Global talent visa as the role has been funded by the UKRI. My post is related to imparting growth to a business by utilising and optimising r and d functions through project management techniques. It is a research and application based role.

Has anyone with a KTP was successful in the Global Talent visa application ?

Also, I do not hold a PhD, I hold Masters from a reputed UK university and post that i have been working as a business consultant in India. So, I have do not have a professional research experience, however, I have conducted research for my assignments, master's thesis. So is my background eligible for global talent visa ?

Also, the university HR does not offer guidance but they can provide me support for eg., grant letters, letter of the HR director, etc.

Can anyone help me decide please whether to take global talent visa or skilled workers ???

According to global talent visa immigration rules in the appendix of gov.uk, GTE 8.1, under the fast track UKRI endorsed pathway, the applicant must be an ACTIVE RESEARCHER.

So, the active researcher means someone who was an active research in their past profession, i.e., only scientist, post docs, research assts., etc. can apply ?

or

They should be offered the role of an active researcher in an university ??? i.e., their background can be anything but they would be a researcher in their prospective job for which they are applying the visa for ?

Also, do we have to post it or scan it and sent online ? and to whom it should be sent ?

I just read on the forum that documents which evidence your financial conditions are also required as additional documents for the stage 2 process.

did someone submit all of these documents like bank statements, land deed or did people get their vignette even after submitting just the passport and endorsement letter?

Hi all,

I wanted to know the eligibility for the endorsed funder- UKRI route of GTV.

Do we need to have a researcher background if we do not have a PhD?
