UK Skilled Worker Visa Guide

Eligibility rules, sponsorship, salary thresholds, dependants, and the end-to-end application workflow.

8 min read

The Skilled Worker route is designed for applicants with an eligible job offer from a Home Office approved sponsor.

Applicants normally need a valid Certificate of Sponsorship, an eligible occupation code, and salary that meets the relevant threshold.

English language evidence, maintenance planning, and dependant strategy should all be prepared early to reduce delays.
