Points-based Migration System is Announced
The points-based system is the biggest shake-up of the
immigration system for 45 years. The system will replace
over 80 existing routes to work and study in the United
Kingdom with five tiers. The system allows British
businesses to recruit the skills they need from abroad
while providing assurances to the British public that
only those migrants we need will be able to come to the
United Kingdom.
You may be aware of the
new changes that came into effect in Nov 2008 regarding
the Points Based System (PBS) which replaces the Work
Permit application system when employing staff from
overseas.
UK Employers needing staff now from overseas must first
become licensed with the UK Border Agency before they
consider taking on any new overseas workers and then
justify a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) for each
person before they can apply for Entry Clearance into
the UK.
Any extensions or
transfers for existing overseas staff will have to
comply with the new PBS also, which could affect
current staff levels.
There are five (5) Tiers
altogether, each Tier has it's own set of conditions and
rules, the ones affecting employers most are Tiers 2 &
5, but we believe the main Tier to affect your
organization with be Tier 2.
