Petition Action

Loosen up the UK immigration policy for Skill immigrants (Tier 2 VISA)

Petition Details

The NHS, already understaffed, had to turn away at least 20 doctors recently due to the strict Skilled worker policy (Tier 2 VISA).
With only 20,700 Tier 2 availability per year, the UK suffers heavily from Brain Drain, making the UK less competitive for investment and costing our economy dearly.

Additional Information

The harsh environment for skilled workers from non-EU countries is a result of the decisions the PM made, whom still does not realise the damage she had caused for the country.
Official data shows almost all of 100,000 foreign students return home after study. Economic benefits are estimated to be £20.3bn to the UK during their degrees (after deducting costs).

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what changes you'd like to see to Tier 2 visas.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
