The Skilled Worker route lets UK employers sponsor overseas workers into eligible roles, and lets workers build a path towards settlement. Success depends on the right role coding, the right salary position and clean, complete evidence.
Basic requirements
Every case turns on its own facts — these are the core requirements we assess at your consultation:
- A job offer from a Home Office licensed sponsor
- A valid Certificate of Sponsorship for the role
- The role meets the current skill level requirements
- Salary meets the general and occupation-specific thresholds
- English language requirement met

Common questions
Can my family come with me?
Partners and children can usually apply as dependants, with their own fees and evidence requirements. We prepare family applications together so timelines line up.
Can I switch to Skilled Worker from inside the UK?
Many visa holders can switch without leaving the UK, though some routes are excluded. We confirm your position before anything is submitted.
What if the salary is below the usual threshold?
Lower thresholds can apply for certain occupations, new entrants and other categories. Whether you qualify turns on the detail — this is exactly what the consultation resolves.
