The UK has introduced a number of new UK immigration, naturalization, UK visa, work permit and UK working visa categories in the last few years. The points based skilled immigration category the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP) introduced in January 2002 has proved to be very successful. A Summary of UK HSMP Changes, as of 17 November, 2006 has been placed here.
However, the HSMP is being replaced by Tier 1 of the UK's new five-tier points based system which will encompass all work, study, and training immigration routes into the country. People seeking extensions to their HSMP visa are now required to extend their leave to remain under Tier 1 for General Highly Skilled Migrants. Starting in April 2008, applicants located in India will be required to file initial highly skilled migrants under Tier 1, followed by the rest of the world in summer 2008.
You may have to wait months for your UK visa application to be processed by the Border and Immigration Agency, or spend the whole day there to then find that you do not have all the relevant documentation. We are OISC registered and can submit your UK visa application to the Home Office to be dealt with on the same day.
