Immigration law changes:
Skill Level Raised: Minimum skill level increased from A-level (RQF 3) to degree level (RQF 6), making ~180 roles ineligible. Temporary Shortage List (TSL): Some sub-degree roles still allowed but with no dependants, no salary concessions, and expires end-2026. Salary Thresholds Increased: General: £38,700 → £41,700 New Entrant: £30,960 → £33,400 PhD: £34,830 → £37,500 Global Specialist: £48,500 → £52,500 (No grace period for new applications/extensions.)
Social Care Route Closed: Care roles removed; no new overseas hires after 22 July 2025. In-country extensions allowed until 2028 under strict criteria. Dependants Restricted: RQF 3–5 workers under TSL/ISL can’t bring dependants unless already sponsored or in special cases. Transitional Protections: Current visa holders in now-ineligible roles can extend, switch jobs, or apply for settlement.
Why It Matters: Major tightening of post-Brexit immigration. Employers must act by 21 July 2025. More changes (language, fees, family visas) expected later in 2025.
