In order to retain its competitive edge, the UK invites skilled professionals to work in the UK under the Tier 2 visa program. Under this program, workers whose occupations are listed on the Tier 2 Shortage Occupation List can apply to work in the UK on a long term basis. Among the popular professions on the list are IT, finance, teaching, healthcare and engineering. AMI Education and Immigration can help you take advantage of this talent shortage in the UK and position yourself to gain a work permit to the UK.<\/p>

If skilled workers must come to the UK, they need to have the Tier 2 visa. You can apply for this visa if you have been offered a skilled job in the UK. The salary requirements for this visa are \u00a320,800 per annum for first-time employees and \u00a330,000 for those with job experience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
