Need Help

Post by tkk43 » Thu Jul 13, 2017 5:52 pm

My fiancee will be going to graduate school in the UK and received a student visa. We are planning to move to the UK from the US shortly before school begins. I am currently looking for a job there but many UK employers are not willing to sponsor employees who are non-UK residents. Is there a way I can obtain a work visa without gaining sponsorship from a UK employer since my fiancee will be studying there under a student visa?

Hi Tkk43,

You can browse the available work visas to the UK below:

https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration/work-visas

It looks like unless you are wanting to set up a business, famous, or are wealthy, it will be difficult for you get a work visa without a sponsorship.
