Our Skilled Worker Visa Services
Under the UK’s current immigration system, the former Tier 2 Visa has evolved into the Skilled Worker Visa. While the name has changed, the core process remains similar. To qualify, applicants must:
- Be employed by a UK-based company licensed by the Home Office.
- Hold a valid Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) issued by their employer.
- Fill a role that meets the skill and salary thresholds set by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI).
At Visasolve, we guide both individuals and employers through the entire Skilled Worker process with clarity and precision.
Key Benefits of the Skilled Worker Visa:
- Live and work in the UK for up to 5 years.
- Apply for settlement (ILR) after 5 years of continuous residence.
- Bring your spouse/partner and children under 18 as dependents.
- Children under 18 can access free education in the UK.
- Transparent, fixed-fee legal service—no hidden costs.
Whether you’re an individual navigating your next step or a business looking to hire international talent, our experienced immigration lawyers are here to help you move forward with confidence.
