Unfortunately, under new rules you would not be able to claim any points for your bachelors degree. Without that you will not be able to reach 75 points threshhold req'd for Tier1 visa.mrnaidu wrote: I have done Bachelors in my home country(india) wether i can get points for my degree or not?

Hence you will be unable to get Tier1 visa. Better try to stick to same Work Permit or look for any other sponsors for Work permit transfer in case you fear redundancy.
Hope this helps.
Thank You,

No. I was in the same position as you (Bachelors degree and on a Work Permit, and here in UK for 9 months). I applied for my Tier1 just 2 weeks ago before the new rules kicked in on 1st April. They won't consider your Tier 1 application unless you have a minimum of a Masters degree now - I discussed this with an immigration consultant/lawyer.mrnaidu wrote: But i read somewhere that in country fellows can apply with bachelors...is that wrong
