10.35am: An introduction to The Points-Based Immigration System

On the 1st January 2021, free movement ended, and the UK introduced a new points-based immigration system.

The new system treats EU and non-EU citizens equally and has transformed the way in which all migrants come to the UK to work and study. Anyone coming to the UK to work or study, excluding Irish citizens, will need to apply for permission in advance.

This session will focus on:
​- Overview of points-based immigration system – Skilled Worker Route
