The Tier 2 visa route, which has had an annual cap of 20,700 since 2011, has in recent months seen the number of applications exceed the monthly allocation of available places. This has been driven, in large part, by demand from the NHS, which accounts for around 40% of all Tier 2 places.
This guidance will refer to the Skilled Worker Visa route (on 1 December 2020 this route replaced the Tier 2 (General) route which was closed). This is the most applicable to Aberystwyth University employees. Information on the other sub categories of Tier 2 visas can be found on the UKVI website.
For FY 2025, the numerical limit for employment-based preference immigrants has been set at 150,000 visas across all visa categories. Specifically, the EB-2 category is statutorily mandated to receive 28.6 percent of this number (42,900 immigrant visas).
After 5 years, you may be able to apply to settle permanently in the UK (also known as indefinite leave to remain). This gives you the right to live, work and study here for as long as you like, and apply for benefits if youre eligible.
The maximum working hours for a second job as a skilled worker visa holder is currently 20 hours. This has been put in place to ensure that any second job does not detract from the sponsored work, which is a key part of your reason for being in the UK in the first place.

Skilled worker visas are granted for up to 5 years. At the end of this period, to remain in the UK, you would either need to apply to extend your visa, or switch into a different visa category, or you may be eligible to apply to settle in the UK permanently.
