Remove restrictions on additional work by Skilled Worker visa holders
Currently, Skilled Visa holders are only permitted to do additional work in the role for which their visa was granted, or in a shortage occupation. Any additional work, even if it is part-time or freelance, requires their visa to be updated. We believe this restriction is unfair and unnecessary.
This restriction limits the opportunities for visa holders to supplement their income and gain valuable experience outside of their primary role. Skilled worker visa holders are already highly qualified and experienced professionals who have been vetted by the UK Government. We believe allowing them to do additional work outside of their primary role, or shortage occupation areas, would not only benefit them but also the UK economy.
