Social Care sector: Points-based immigration system and the status of EU citizens

About this event

What is the points-based system? What is a salary threshold? How do I become a licenced sponsor? What do I need to do for my EU national employees?

On the 1st January 2021 free movement ended and the UK introduced a new points-based immigration system. The new system treats EU and non-EU citizens equally and has transformed the way in which all people come to the UK to work and study. Anyone coming to the UK to work or study, excluding Irish citizens, will need to apply for permission in advance.

Please join officials from the Home Office's Engagement and Policy teams for a short webinar providing an overview of the points-based immigration system for the Social Care sector. The session will include updates on the following:

• Skilled Worker visa

• How to become a Home Office sponsor

• Other Immigration Routes

• Right to Work checks

• EU Settlement Scheme

• Support available

• Q&A
