Over 100 occupations have been removed from the Skilled Worker route, but what does this mean if you’re already in the UK?

Following the increase in the minimum skill level for Skilled Worker sponsorship, many occupations are no longer available to new applicants under the standard rules.

What should you know?
1. If you were already on the Skilled Worker route before 22 July 2025, transitional provisions may apply.
2. You may still be able to extend your visa even if your occupation is no longer available to new applicants.
3. In some cases, you can change employer and obtain a new CoS in the same occupation.
4. New applicants face stricter requirements, with most roles now required to be at RQF Level 6 or above unless an exception applies.
5. New restrictions also apply to dependants, although certain existing Skilled Workers are protected by transitional provisions.

Your options depend on your occupation, when your first CoS was issued and your immigration history.

Can you switch from a Student visa before receiving your Final Results? 🎓🇬🇧

Your Student visa is approaching its expiry date, but your university has not released your final results yet. What are your options? The answer depends on the immigration route you want to switch to. For a Graduate visa, you must have successfully completed your course and your university must have notified the Home Office. You do not need to wait for your graduation ceremony or physical degree certificate.

The position can be different for a Skilled Worker visa. In certain circumstances, a Student visa holder can apply before receiving their final results, provided the relevant requirements are met. There are also separate provisions for PhD students who have completed at least 24 months of their course.

If your Student visa is about to expire, waiting for your final results without checking your immigration options could leave you with very little time to act. Your course dates, visa expiry date and intended immigration route should all be considered before deciding what to do next.

🇬🇧 The UK has expanded the Global Talent visa - again!

On 6 August 2026, the UK Government announced another expansion of the Global Talent route, this time focusing on the UKRI Endorsed Funder pathway. More than 100 research-intensive UK businesses have been added as eligible organisations, opening the pathway to more researchers working in the private sector.

The expansion covers businesses working across areas including:
1. artificial intelligence
2. life sciences
3. quantum technologies
4. advanced manufacturing
5. clean energy and other R&D-intensive sectors

Importantly, working for one of these organisations does not automatically qualify someone for a Global Talent visa. The applicant, their role and the funded research project must still meet the specific requirements of the UKRI Endorsed Funder pathway. This is another significant expansion of Global Talent in 2026 and reflects the UK Government’s continued focus on attracting researchers and highly skilled specialists. If you are considering the Global Talent visa and would like to understand whether your experience and current work could qualify, contact LawSentis for professional immigration advice.

New UK Immigration Rules: What changed on 3 August 2026? 🇬🇧

New changes to the UK Immigration Rules are now in force.
The latest Statement of Changes, HC 259, introduced amendments across a number of immigration routes and requirements, including:
1. Skilled Worker and other work routes
2. Graduate visas
3. Family applications
4. Visitor visas
5. EU Settlement Scheme
6. Administrative Review and suitability requirements
Most of the changes came into force on 3 August 2026, while certain EU Settlement Scheme changes took effect from 30 July 2026.

Why does this matter?
Immigration applications are generally considered under the rules applicable to the relevant application. Some of the latest changes also include specific transitional provisions for applications submitted before 3 August 2026. If you are planning to submit a UK immigration application, make sure you understand which rules apply to your circumstances.

⚠️ New UK Immigration Rules are now in force

From 3 August 2026, the latest Statement of Changes HC 259 has come into effect, introducing updates to the UK Immigration Rules.
The changes affect a number of immigration routes, including:
✅ Family Visas (Appendix FM)
✅ Skilled Worker
✅ Graduate Route
✅ Student Route
✅ Visitor Visas
✅ Administrative Review
✅ and several other parts of the Immigration Rules.

While many of these amendments are technical, they can have a significant impact on immigration applications. Even a small change in the rules may affect the documents required or the way an application should be prepared. If you are planning to apply for a UK visa, extend your stay, apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), or submit any other immigration application, it is important to ensure your case is prepared under the latest version of the Immigration Rules.
If you are unsure how these changes may affect your circumstances, our team would be happy to assist.

What not to do after submitting a UK visa application? 🇬🇧

Submitting your UK visa application doesn’t mean your job is done. In fact, some of the most costly mistakes happen after the application has been submitted.
❌ Don’t ignore emails from UKVI. They may request additional documents or information, and missing a deadline could affect the outcome of your application.
❌ Don’t assume mistakes can’t be corrected. If you notice an error after submission, seek advice as soon as possible. Depending on the circumstances, there may still be options available.
❌ Don’t start a new job just because you’ve applied. Your right to work depends on your immigration status and visa conditions, not simply on submitting a new application.
❌ Don’t ignore significant changes in your circumstances. Changes that are relevant to your application may need to be reported to UKVI.
❌ Don’t withdraw your application without understanding the consequences. This could affect your immigration status or result in losing your application fees.

Every immigration case is different, and the correct next step depends on your individual circumstances. If you’re unsure what to do after submitting your application, we’re here to help.

Thinking of changing your employer while on a Skilled Worker visa?

It’s not as simple as accepting a new job offer. In many cases, you must obtain a new Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) and submit a new Skilled Worker visa application before you can start working for your new employer.

⚠️ Why does this matter?
Starting work too early could breach your visa conditions and may affect your current immigration status and future UK immigration applications. If you’re planning to change employers, make sure you understand the legal requirements before making any decisions.

🇬🇧 Can you lose your British citizenship?

The short answer is yes, but it is extremely rare.

Many people believe that once you become a British citizen, your status can never be taken away. In reality, UK law allows the Home Secretary to deprive someone of British citizenship in limited circumstances.

Here are the main situations where this may happen:
✅ Citizenship was obtained by fraud
If someone became British by using false documents, concealing important information, or making dishonest representations during their application, their citizenship may be revoked.
✅ National security concerns
In exceptional cases, the Home Secretary may deprive a person of British citizenship if it is considered conducive to the public good, for example where there are serious concerns relating to national security, terrorism, or espionage.
✅ Dual nationality
In many deprivation cases, the individual already holds another nationality. The UK is generally not permitted to make a person stateless, although there are limited exceptions under the law.

Common myths
❌ “I can lose my citizenship if I leave the UK for too long.”
No. There is no requirement to continue living in the UK after becoming a British citizen.
❌ “I can lose it because I don’t pay taxes.”
No. Tax issues alone do not result in the loss of British citizenship.
❌ “A criminal conviction automatically means my citizenship will be revoked.”
No. A criminal conviction does not automatically lead to deprivation of citizenship. Such cases are exceptional and depend on the specific legal circumstances.

British citizenship is intended to be permanent. For the vast majority of British citizens, it will never be at risk. If you’re unsure about your circumstances or have concerns about your immigration or nationality status, seeking professional legal advice is always recommended.

🚨 Think living in the UK for 5 or 10 years automatically guarantees ILR? Think again.

Even if you meet the main eligibility requirements, mistakes in your application could result in a refusal.
In this carousel, we’ve highlighted 3 common mistakes applicants make when applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR):
✔️ Applying too early.
✔️ Miscalculating your absences from the UK.
✔️ Providing insufficient or incorrect supporting documents.
💡 Every ILR application is different, and the requirements depend on your immigration route. Taking the time to ensure your application is accurate and complete can help you avoid unnecessary delays or a potential refusal.

The formation of Andy Burnham’s new Cabinet has answered one important question for migrants: Shabana Mahmood remains Home Secretary.

What does this mean for ILR?
1. The Government is still expected to proceed with its proposed Earned Settlement reforms.
2. Under the proposals, the standard route to settlement for many migrants could increase from 5 years to 10 years.
3. A shorter pathway may still be available for those who meet additional criteria, such as higher earnings, stronger English language skills, and contributions to the UK.
4. However, the Government has not yet published the final rules or transitional arrangements for people who are already in the UK and on the current 5-year route.

Why does this matter?
At the moment, nothing has changed in the Immigration Rules. ILR applications continue to be decided under the current legislation until new rules are formally introduced. The biggest unanswered question remains whether existing migrants will be protected by transitional provisions.
If you are planning your route to settlement, it is important to understand how any future changes could affect your individual circumstances.
