Which kind of visa?
Skilled Worker · Health and CareWork
For people with a job offer from a UK employer that is licensed to sponsor.
- The employer, job and salary all have to qualify
- English language is required
- Partner and children can usually apply with you
Global Talent · Innovator Founder · High Potential IndividualTalent and business
For leaders in their field, founders and recent graduates of top universities, mostly without a job offer.
- Most of these need an endorsement before the visa
- The evidence you build is the application
- Some lead to settlement, some do not
Spouse · Fiancé · Parent · ChildFamily and partner
For partners, parents and children of British citizens and people settled in the UK.
- Income, English and relationship evidence all matter
- A separate section covers every family route
Student · GraduateStudy and after study
For people studying in the UK, and the routes that follow a UK degree.
- The Graduate visa is applied for from inside the UK
- It cannot be extended, so plan the next route
Standard VisitorVisit
For short trips to see family, travel or attend business meetings.
- No work allowed
- A refusal stays on your record, so the first file matters

Avoid these
Where applications go wrong
- Taking a job offer without checking the sponsor. The employer must hold a licence for the route.
- Assuming a salary qualifies. The occupation and the pay must both meet the rules.
- Applying for the wrong route. Several routes look alike. Pick by your facts, not by the name.
- Leaving gaps in your history. Unexplained gaps in work or travel lead to refusals.
A mistake you only find after you lodge is the hardest to fix. Talk to us before you apply.
