TIER 2

A Tier 2 visa is for sponsored workers with a job offer in the UK. 

In order for an employer to sponsor a foreign worker, the employer must first have a Sponsor License.

There are four categories of Tier 2 work permits:

  • Skilled Worker - The Tier 2 skilled worker category is for people with a specific skilled job offer in the UK who are needed to fill a temporary gap in the labour force.
  • Intra-Company Transfer (ICT) - This category is for people who are being transferred to a UK branch of their organisation.
  • Sports People - This category is for elite professional athletes and coaches.
  • Minister of Religion - The minister of religion category is for workers within a bona fide religion

We provide assistance to individuals who have a job offer and require advice on completion of application forms, assessment of documents, arranging fast track appointments, issuing certificates of sponsorship on behalf of their employer and submission of applications to the UK Border Agency.
