Skilled Worker Visa for international students?! - New UK Immigration Rules 😱

Video Description

We have seen recent immigration news and changes for skilled worker visas, especially the new salary requirements starting from 4th April 2024! In my previous video, I talked a lot about what salary requirements are there for international students applying for a skilled worker visa, I explained new entrant rules and what salary discounts exist for switchers from a student visa/graduate visa to a skilled worker visa. In this video, I would like to dig deeper and evaluate whether new salary thresholds are realistic and whether international students will have a chance to switch to skilled worker visas either after their degree or after they spend some time on the graduate visa. I hope this video will give you a realistic picture of salary levels and job opportunities in the UK as a graduate.
