Hi Garurav,

Tier-1 General category doesn't exist any more for new applicant. So you wont be able to apply for Tier-1 You will need to apply for Tier-2.

Hello,

I dont know if Tier 1 General has been shut down or not, but on the HO Website it does not say it has shut. It just has new eligibility criteria. you now need 100 points to be eligible to apply.

Please see these links :

Guys if anyone knows anything otherwise please let me know If I am wrong.
