Eligibility for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR): After completing a certain period on the Turkish Business Person Visa, you may become eligible to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain, offering a pathway to permanent residency in the UK.

To apply or discuss whether these visas are right for your circumstances please contact us, We will work with you to find the right visa to suit your needs. We’d love to discuss it with you. We can also send you our automated information collection form and start the application process immediately.

Within the category of Long Term Work Visas, there are further subcategories. The main ones are:

• Skilled Worker Visa
• Health and Care Worker Visa
• Intra-company Visa
• International Sportsperson Visa
• (The NEW) Scale Up Visa

To qualify for a Long Term Work visa, you must:

• Work for a UK employer that’s been approved by the Home Office, you must have a confirmed job offer before you apply for your visa.
• Have a ‘certificate of sponsorship’ from your employer with information about the role you’ve been offered in the UK
• Do a job that is on the list of eligible occupations
• Be paid a minimum salary – how much depends on the type of work you do

You must be able to speak, read, write and understand English. You’ll usually need to prove your knowledge of English when you apply.

If you are not eligible for a Long Term Work visa you may be eligible for another type of visa to work in the UK. There are lots of visa types such as Short Term Work visas, which includes Overseas Domestic Worker visa, and Seasonal Worker visa, and Innovator and Talent visas detailed in the sections below.

Contact us and explain your circumstances. We will work with you to find the right visa to suit your needs.

With a Long Term Work visa you can:

• Work in an eligible job
• Also study
• Bring your partner and children with you as your dependants, if they are eligible
• Take on additional work in certain circumstances
• Do voluntary work
• Travel abroad and return to the UK
• Apply to settle permanently in the UK (also known as ‘indefinite leave to remain’) if you’ve lived in the UK for 5 years and meet the other eligibility requirements

You cannot:

• Apply for most benefits (public funds), or the State Pension
• Change jobs or employer unless you apply to update your visa

This type of visa has stipulated that you need to work in an Eligible job. This is vital, so what classifies a job as ‘Eligible’?

A) The  UK employer has been approved by the Home Office

B) You will be paid at least the minimum salary for the type of work you’ll be doing

A) The UK employer has been approved by the Home Office

Check that your job is eligible. To check whether it is eligible you will need to know its 4-digit occupation code. If you already have a job offer, ask your employer for your occupation code or you can search for your job in the ONS occupation coding tool.

Not every job title is included. If you cannot find your exact job title, try searching for similar jobs. Make sure the job description matches what you’ll be doing. Some similar jobs have different codes, for example chefs and cooks. Chefs are eligible for a Skilled Worker visa, but cooks are not.

If this is difficult for you, please ask us for help. Contact us

When you know your occupation code, view the table of eligible jobs in the UK government website to see if it is included.

The table is very large. It is sorted in order of occupation code, with the smallest numbers at the top.

In addition to your job being eligible, your job offer must have come from an approved UK employer. Approved employers are also known as sponsors, because they are sponsoring you to come to or stay in the UK.

View the UK Government list of approved UK employers.

If your employer is not currently approved, they can apply for a sponsor licence if they’re eligible.

They’ll need to pay a fee – £536 for small businesses and charities or £1,476 for medium and large organisations. It usually takes around 8 weeks to process a licence application.

If your job offer is for an eligible role, and the employer is an authorised Sponsor they will check that you meet the eligibility requirements. They’ll give you a ‘certificate of sponsorship’ to prove this.

The certificate of sponsorship is an electronic record, not a physical document. It will have a reference number, which you’ll need for your visa application.

Many applicants struggle with this part of the process, so allow us to gain this information for you, and take ownership of the complex and time consuming section of the application. Contact us

Please also note there are a number of rules that you will need to abide by. For example, ensure that you apply for your visa within 3 months of getting your certificate of sponsorship. In addition make sure that when you upload documents, make sure that they are translated and certified in English, or at least understood by a non-Turkish speaking decision maker.

B) You will be paid at least the minimum salary for the type of work you’ll be doing

The minimum salary for the type of work you’ll be doing is whichever is the highest out of the following 3 options:

• £26,200 per year Skilled / £33,000 per year Scale Up
• £10.10 per hour
• the ‘going rate’ for the type of work you’ll be doing.

You will usually need to be paid at least £26,200 / £33,000 per year or £10.10 per hour, whichever is higher. If the ‘going rate’ for your job is higher than both of these, you’ll usually need to be paid at least the going rate.

Example: Your salary is £37,000 per year, but the annual going rate for the job you’ll be doing is £40,000. You do not meet the usual salary requirements for this visa.

Each occupation code has its own annual going rate. Check the going rate for your job in the UK Government going rates table.

If you work in healthcare or education there are different salary rules where the going rate is based on national pay scales. In addition, If you do not meet the usual salary requirements, and you do not work in healthcare or education, you might still be eligible if your salary will be at least £20,480 per year and at least £10.10 per hour.

This is a complex area and we advise you to contact us.

Documents you will need to apply

When you apply you will need to provide:

• your certificate of sponsorship reference number – your employer will give you this
• proof of your knowledge of English
• a valid passport or other document that shows your identity and nationality
• your job title and annual salary
• your job’s occupation code
• the name of your employer and their sponsor licence number – this will be on your certificate of sponsorship

How much money will I need to apply and evidence to the UK government?

When you apply for a Long Term Work visa you will need to demonstrate that you have money to pay for the process and support yourself.

The UK government requires between £610 to £1,408 depending on the type of visa you apply for, to process and consider your official application.

You will also be required to pay the healthcare surcharge, which is approximately £1035 per year (as of February 2024).

The UK believe that you must be able to support yourself when you arrive in the UK, evidence of having at least £1,270 available is often necessary.

There are further rules that you may need to abide by to prove this availability of money to the UK government. For example you will need to have had the money available for at least 28 days in a row. Day 28 must be within 31 days of applying for this visa.

Thorough knowledge of the application process is clearly an advantage when applying. We know the rules and the exceptions, such as not needing this £1,270 if we can prove that your employer will support you for the first month. There are lots of important aspects to know.

There are some exceptions to these rules, but they are limited. For example, you will pay a lower official application fee if your job is on the shortage occupation list.

For example: You are hoping to come for 2 years on a Skilled Worker visa and your job is not a shortage occupation;

Our Service £650

Official application £719.

Healthcare surcharge for two years £1035 + £1035

This means you’ll pay a total of £1,754 plus £650 when you apply for your visa.

You’ll also need to prove you have £1,270 available to support yourself in the UK if your employer cannot cover these costs.

If your job is on the shortage list the official application fee is further reduced.

We charge £650 for our services. We will ensure that you apply for the correct Visa type and complete the whole application process including the translation and certification of any documents (free of charge).

To discuss your application it is also free. Do not be offended if we do not take your case, we will only recommend that you do not apply if we believe that you will not be successful. We are not afraid of failure, instead we know that the UK does not refund those applicants who are unsuccessful and therefore we will not take money from you unless we believe you have a chance of success.  

If you decide to apply without the use of our service we wish you the best of luck. Make sure your answers are written in English and that the decision makers understand your answers. Upload the correct documents and make sure they are translated so that the decision maker can understand them. And do try to be successful, if you fail it is very difficult to reapply (even with a Consultancy Service) and get a positive result.

You need a CAS before you can apply for your visa. You must enter this reference number on your visa application. You must apply for your visa within 6 months of receiving your CAS.

This visa will allow you to remain in the UK for up to 5 years if your course is degree level. If it’s below degree level, you can usually stay in the UK for up to 2 years. There are also ways to remain in the UK, during and after utilising by extending your Visa or switching to a Graduate Visa.

You can stay in the UK until your child’s visa expires or they turn 12, whichever happens first.

If your child is staying in education in the UK without you, you must make arrangements for their ongoing care. For example, if your child turns 12 and their visa is still valid, they may be able to start boarding at their current school, or live with other family members in the UK.

While you’re in the UK on a Parent of a Child Student visa, you cannot:

• do paid work
• study
• start a business
• make the UK your main home

Applying for this visa can be time consuming, and if we were to take this responsibility for you, we charge $400. We would be delighted to help you apply and obtain your visa, but if you decide not to use our services we wish you the best of luck. We would advise you to make sure that you provide certified translated copies of any documents you supply as evidence. You must provide written proof of the course you’re studying. For example, a letter of acceptance from the educational institution stating the course’s name, duration and cost (including accommodation).

We also have a network of agents operating in the UK, so if you need advice or help before you get there or after please contact us.

Check if you need one before you apply. Your airline will have this information.

To get a transit visa you must prove that:

• you’ll be in transit to another country, with enough funds and the intention to travel on
• you can enter that country
• the only purpose of your visit to the UK is to transit

You do not need a transit visa if you:

• have a Standard Visitor Visa
• have a Marriage Visitor Visa

If you do intend going through border control, you will need a Visitor in Transit Visa. You can only remain in the UK for 48 hours. This will cost £64. If you need to stay for longer you will need a Standard Visitor Visa.

We can make this a very simple process for you, which will be hassle free once you have supplied us with straight forward travel itinerary details. But, this is a very simple process, here we are charging you for the administration and our time rather than our expertise. You can probably do this yourself, at least have a look before paying us.
