High Potential Individual Visa

Who qualifies?

Applicants should have graduated in the five years before the date of application from an institution on the Global Universities List .  Requirement regarding English language and holding funds of at least £1,270 also apply.

Applicants can extend their status after two years.  The UK’s immigration process to sponsor employment is less restrictive than that of some other countries (for example the US).  Those coming to the end of working holiday visas are often sponsored by employers.  Permanent residence in the UK is possible after five years of sponsorship.
