IMPACT – MEDIUM
U.K. immigration authorities have released the global universities list used to select High Potential Individual (HPI) visas.
Key Points:
Additional Information: Education qualifications must be verified by Ecctis for applicants to be eligible for an HPI visa; information on how to have qualifications verified is available here.
BAL Analysis: Those who are eligible to apply for an HPI visa should review the application instructions which will be found on the Home Office’s website once the scheme starts on May 30. Those who receive an HPI visa can stay in work in the U.K. for two years (three years for those who hold a PhD) and can switch to other long-term employment visas.
