New immigration rules open up opportunities for migrants to live and work in the UK

New immigration rules open up opportunities for migrants to live and work in the UK

The government recently announced key reforms to the visa immigration system which will open up opportunities for talented people to migrate live and work in the UK.

In a new policy shift, the government wants to reform the immigration system to help ambitious UK businesses attract the brightest and best international talent.

Key takeaways:

·        March 2022, introduce an elite points-based visa

·        New ’scale up’ for those with a job offer from a recognised UK to upgrade to a fast-track visa

·        Reform the Global Talent visa to open up to the brightest and best around the world

·        Review Innovator visa to make it easier for those with skills and experience to obtain a visa

·        Launch a new Global Business Mobility visa by spring 2022

·        Global Mobility Visa for overseas businesses to establish in or transfer staff to the UK

·        Give new support to small firms that are using the visa system for the first time

·        Modernise and simplify the immigration sponsorship system to make it easier to use

·        Build a new global outreach programme expanding the Global Entrepreneur Programme and actively marketing the UK’s visa offering and explore building an overseas talent network.

The promised overhaul of the immigration system following Brexit from the EU will give UK businesses can hire in a significantly wider range of skilled roles from around the world.

Whilst the Global Talent visa (was Tier 1 Global Talent) currently allows recognised or potential leaders in academia or research, arts & culture and digital technology to move to the UK, the reforms will simplify the application process.

The new practical support to small firms using the immigration system could really help British businesses attract talent from around the world.

The government is also increasing its support of the fintech industry, which could point to a more sector-based approach in helping specific industries to recruit more overseas staff to live and work in the UK.

There is a definite change of approach towards immigration within Home Office under Home Secretary Pritti Patel, whose parents came to live in the UK as migrants.

The much-needed modernisation of the Sponsor Management System is long overdue, as the system has not had any major upgrades since 2008. The upgraded SMS system will make it easier for Sponsor Licence holders to use and will businesses who want to sponsor migrant workers.

Immigration Rule changes opens door to recruit overseas health and senior care staff to work in the UK

Overseas workers in key health and care roles will have more opportunity to work in the UK following changes announces to the Immigration Rules, the Home Office has announced.

New jobs that have been added to the UK Shortage Occupation List, which gives people in these roles a major advantage in obtaining a skilled worker visa, include…see full article on my blog page.

How To Start A Money Making Business From Home, With NO Capital And NO Risk!

With pubs and restaurants closed for the lockdown in the UK and Ireland it's a reminder of how vulnerable physical businesses, like pubs, restaurants and shops are to economic downturns or market changes.

At the same time, internet business owners are getting richer. Never in history has more goods been bought on the internet.

Even before the pandemic, the high street was already under pressure from online shopping, which has exploded in the last few years.

High rents, taxes and competition from the likes of Amazon and Shopify have driven large retailers, like Debenhams, out of business and forced John Lewis to start closing 70% of its 50 plus stores in the UK.

How does this help you get started online?

The internet has given small home-based businesses an opportunity to compete with the big companies which have dominated the market. They took the best sites in the high street and malls, and often drove small retailers to the wall with massive advertising and undercutting. Fortunately, this has now changed and that’s how you can benefit from the online bonanza.

You can now set up a risk-free online business or store - from home in your spare time - and sell to a potential market of 5 billion people browsing the internet every day looking for solutions to their problems.

You no longer need to rent a shop or premises and pay high taxes and bills before you make a penny. And you don’t have to quit your job until your business income exceeds your salary.

Here are 3 simple steps.

Step 1

Sell solutions to people’s problems

Research your idea or product online – where else! You can check on Google how many people are searching for products or solutions to their problems. For instance, millions of people want to be slimmer and healthier, especially in these times. According to wordstream 450,000 people have recently searched for “how to lose weight” on the internet. Other ‘keyword’ searches like “diet” and “lose weight fast” had similar results. That’s just one niche!

You can literally find out how many people are searching for keyword solutions by checking on Google and specialists like Wordstream and Mondovo absolutely free. Market research like this was previously only available to large companies with large budgets. Now you can access it for free.

You can get up and running with your online business website today for free with GrooveFunnels. For more information…click here  

Step 2

Set up your online business today

Set up an online business selling products that people are looking for (not what you think the market needs), or sell to people online from your existing business, by setting your website online today. You don’t need to pay a designer or software engineer to set up a website, as there are readymade templates and off-the-shelf website pages to get your business started today. In the past, I have spent tens of thousands on websites because they had to be designed and built from scratch, which took months. Fortunately, you don’t have to go through this pain.

You can now build a simple website for free using GrooveFunnels template pages and built-in shopping cart checkout facilities with a click of a button. GrooveFunnels is offering free lifetime access for a limited period only – no credit card required to open and start using your free account.

Step 3

Now decide what you are going to sell and how and GET STARTED!

Decide what niche you want to be in and what you want to sell. Unless you already have your own products and business (which you may want to change based on your new research on what people actually want) you can start by selling other people’s products and services for a generous commission of between 10 and 50%. This is essentially how some of the biggest companies in the world make billions in profits.

Booking.com and Airbnb do not own their own hotels and Amazon helps millions of small retailers and authors sell online for a commission.

If you want to start earning cash today, GrooveFunnels will also pay you a commission to recommend their fantastic free software to your friends, colleagues and customers when you open your free account. Find out how to earn money

Here’s the best part. It’s risk free and no capital investment required! No re-mortgaging your house and borrowing thousands or risking everything to open up a physical business. And you can get started right away. What have you got to lose?

PS. One final thing…this free lifetime access is on offer for a limited period only.

GrooveFunnels only plan to keep this offer open for a short while and will soon start charging at least $99 dollars per month to access the same package you can get for free for life – NO credit card needed…FREE LIFETIME ACCESS.

World Cup Fever Hits London's Migrant Communities

Cynthia Barker writes...Hot and sunny in London, but this is the worst time of year for hay fever sufferers like me! But work must be done and the client comes first. Rain or shine, they just want their visa, indefinite leave to remain, UK citizenship or appeal against a refusal by the Home Office.

London is buzzing with another kind of fever...World Cup fever! With migrants from just about every country on earth living in the UK the pubs showing live matches will be heaving with fans supporting their team.

The UK has a large Brazilian population who will no doubt be watching the opening game against Croatia, our newest EU member state - there is 7 year restriction on Croatians who want to work in the UK, but they can study and work and apply for a yellow card permit (no relation to football yellow cards!).

England's opening game is against Italy on Saturday night. While I love Italy, I have to support my home side so...come on England!!!

If you need advice on any immigration matter, EU or UK immigration law, or want to appeal against a refusal, call Cynthia Barker on 07850 307687 or 0208 731 5972 or email her your details to immigration@londonccs.com.

Happy St Georges Day For The Patron Saint Of England Few People Know

Cynthia Barker writes...Today is St George's Day - the day to celebrate all things English, but you would hardly notice it in London.

I found this piece which you might find interesting.

St George's Day is the patron saint day of England yet many people do not even known its date.
A poll by think tank British Future last year found only 40% of people knew that St George's Day was on 23 April, compared to 71% who knew when America's Independence Day was.

Findings also showed more people know when Ireland's St Patrick's Day was, and that two thirds think 17 March is more widely celebrated in Britain than St George's Day.

An English Heritage survey has also found that just 19% of adults in England plan to celebrate St George's Day.

To mark St George's Day, IBTimes UK looks at some little known facts about St George and St George's Day.

George was from Eastern Turkey
St George was born to Christian parents in 270 AD in Cappadocia, which is now Eastern Turkey. He moved to Palestine and became a Roman soldier, but later resigned and protested against his pagen leader, Emperor Diocletian, who led the persecution of Christians in Rome.

His rebellion led him to be imprisoned and tortured, but he did not abandon his faith. He was eventually dragged through the streets and was beheaded on 23 April 303 AD.

George never slayed a dragon
Many stories about Saint George involve him slaying a dragon. However, this is highly unlikely as dragons with 50ft tails do not exist. Instead, the dragon is believed to have represented the devil or evil at the time.
The story about him slaying a dragon took place in Libya. Locals had been sacrificing maidens from the town to appease the dragon, who lived near the fresh water spring. The next sacrifice was due to be the princess Cleolinda, so George fought the dragon, slayed the beast and saved the princess. To show their gratitude, the people of Selene converted to Christianity.

George and England
George became patron saint of England in 1415 AD, over a thousand years after his death. His reputation had been growing among English soldiers over the centuries, with the first recorded reference coming in the seventh century from St Adomnán, the Abbot of Iona in Scotland.

As Crusaders returned to England they brought with them tales of St George and his reputation as a protector of soldiers grew. In 1099, a record from a church in Dorset tells of a "miracle appearance" where St George led the Crusaders into battle. Soldiers began wearing his signature – the red and white cross – on their chest and backs in the 12th century.

St George's Day traditions
It used to be popular for people to mark St George's Day by wearing a red rose in their button hole to show the national flower on their national day. Other former traditions that rarely take place now include Morris Dancing and eating fish and chips.

St George: Saint of all sorts
As well as being the patron saint of England, other countries that celebrate St George's Day include: Canada, Croatia, Portugal, Cyprus, Greece, Georgia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Republic of Macedonia.

He is he patron saint of soldiers, archers, cavalry, chivalry, riders, saddlers, farmers and field workers and people with leprosy, the plague and syphilis. George is also the patron saint of Scouting as he "was typical of what a scout should be".
