The government’s system is complex and confusing, but we believe that if we explain everything to you well, there shouldn’t be any difficulties!  All you have to do is fill in the forms and as soon as you attach several documents to it, your application is ready to be submitted! That is what we are here for – to assist you with the choice of forms and documents and to help you understand how the system works!

The points-based immigration system is the means of regulating immigration to the United Kingdom from outside the European Economic Area (EEA). The scheme was phased in between 2008 and 2010. It is composed of five “tiers” which replaced all the previous work permits and entry schemes, including Scotland’s Fresh Talent Initiative. The system is administered by the UK Border Agency.

The UK’s immigration programme operates on a points-based system whereby individuals wishing to come to the UK to work must first satisfy specific requirements and pass a points test calculated across a range of criteria.

Under the points-based system there are five separate categories through which applicants may apply to enter the UK. Each category is referred to as a ‘Tier’, and it should be noted that not all Tiers offer individuals the same entitlements and rights to seek or take up employment.
