No change.t0mal wrote:I was just wondering what will happen to in-country Tier 1 (PSW) applications before April 2011?
Mrs May's statement(s) in the House of CommonsAs well as limiting the number of skilled non-European workers that businesses can bring into the country, the Home Office is tightening the intra-company transfer route (which will sit outside the annual limit) and restricting Tier 1 of the points-based system - the 'highly skilled' tier - to all but entrepreneurs, investors and people of exceptional talent.
I think she is seeking consultation to close PSW all together. Just out of interest, have any new rules ever been implemented before April 0X of any given year. I am asking this because my girlfriend graduates in December and has to wait till Feb/march for results.sushdmehta wrote:No mention of Tier 1 (PSW) category in the new details published today regarding limits on non-EU workers from April 2011:
Annual limit for Tier 1 and Tier 2 visa applications

Hmm, interesting, many thanks for the reply.
But with this new government I guess only option is to wait and see what they do.
Will not be shocked if they closed down PSW in or before Feb 2011.
