As the New Points Based System sweeps across immigration and work related applications those already in the UK with permission to work will be effected. The Home Office announced on 11.04.2008 that new and transitional arrangements are being established for those coming to the end of their work permit.
It has further stated that those currently in the UK with a valid work permit can continue to work and reside in the UK under the terms of their visa until such a time as they are required to renew the same.
We would urge that if you are approching the expiry date for your permit and leave to reside in the UK that you seek legal advice and assistance immediately as the category of permit that you currently have may no longer be in existance.
