Age when your HSMP application is expected to be submitted to Work Permits (UK)
Qualifications gained outside of the UK may need to be verified by UK NARIC. Some qualifications may be downgraded on points if gained outside of the UK. Certificates supplied in support of all applications need to be in original format.
The 2004 Budget announced a new provision for graduates of some of the top business schools to work in the UK upon completing their MBAs. The MBA remains one of the most widely recognised and respected management qualifications. The MBA provision, launched on the 12 April 2005, is a provision within the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP). It will enable the more highly qualified and talented managers to come to the UK.
If you are claiming this for points it has to be declared income. The salary in the last 12 months is checked and you need to show evidence - like 12 months original payslips.
Primary Country of residence over last twelve months:
Income over last twelve months in UK currency (if you are a student for the 12 months before you became a student)
You can claim 5 points if you have previous experience of living in the UK if either:
You have successfully scored points under the previous earnings category and your earnings were in the UK
or
You have studied and graduated at bachelors degree level or higher in full-time or higher education in the UK, or at a UK-based overseas educational institution, for at least one full academic year.
In order to qualify for HSMP an applicant must have a good knowledge of the English language and must provide evidence to support this. If you do not supply this your application may be refused.
You need 75 points or more to qualify for the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme. Please contact us for more information
