Tier 2 applications
You will be able to apply for a Tier 2 visa if you are a skilled worker and wish to come to the UK to work. You must have been offered a job by an employer who can sponsor your visa application. There are four categories of skilled worker that can apply for a Tier 2 visa:
- General
- Minister of religion
- Sportsperson
- Intra company transfer
If you are a business looking to become a sponsor for a Tier 2 migrant see our section on Employer Sponsorship Licences
In order to meet the requirements for any Tier 2 category visa, the general rule is that you must have an offer of employment from a company that has a
licence to sponsor Tier 2 applicants. The vacancy you are offered must be one which cannot be filled by settled individual in the UK. In addition, you must not own more than 10% of the companies’ shares.
