UK Immigration Update – May 2025..... Check out now!

🎓 Graduate Route Visa: Duration Reduced to 18 Months
The UK government has officially reduced the duration of the Graduate Route visa from two years to 18 months for most international students. This change, effective from May 2025, is part of broader immigration reforms aimed at tightening post-study work options. PhD graduates will continue to benefit from a three-year post-study work period.

These adjustments are outlined in the government's white paper titled "Restoring Control Over the Immigration System," which includes measures to reduce net migration and ensure that immigration pathways align with the UK's economic needs.

🛠️ Skilled Worker Visa: Key Reforms Implemented
Significant changes have been made to the Skilled Worker visa route:

Qualification Level Raised: The minimum skill level for new Skilled Worker visa applicants has been increased to RQF Level 6 (graduate level), except for roles listed on the newly introduced Temporary Shortage List.

Salary Threshold Increased: The general salary threshold for Skilled Worker visas has risen from £26,200 to £38,700, reflecting the government's intent to attract higher-skilled workers.

Temporary Shortage List Introduced: Replacing the previous Shortage Occupation List, the Temporary Shortage List allows for time-limited visa sponsorships in specific sectors experiencing acute shortages. Roles on this list are subject to stricter conditions and do not provide a pathway to settlement.

Social Care Visa Route Closed: The visa route for social care workers has been closed to new overseas applicants, with a transitional period allowing current visa holders to extend their stay until 2028.

📊 Impact on Migration Figures
These policy changes have led to a significant decrease in net migration:

Net migration to the UK fell by 50% in the year leading to March 2025, dropping from 866,000 to 431,000.

The reduction is attributed to decreased non-EU immigration for work and study visas following the implementation of stricter immigration rules.
