Application process
There’s a 2-stage application process to get this visa.

You first need to apply to the Home Office for endorsement as a leader or an emerging leader in your particular field.

Then, once you have been endorsed, you can apply for the visa.

There are 2,000 places available under this visa category between 6 April to 5 April of the following year.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

My endorsement approver will be Royal academy engineering,as my area of expertise is related to engineering.

Please let me know how many number of applications will be processed every year on this field?

Thanks and Regards

Any idea how many number of applications will be approved by home office every year?

If the number of available Tier-1 Exceptional Talent/ Exceptional Promise vacancies are filled, then visa application website will not accept new (stage-1) applications.
If new application can be initiated online for a particular endorsement approver, it means that the slots are sill available.
