change to Immigration Rules on settlement

On 31 October 2011, a new change to the Immigration Rules for settlement was introduced.

Work permit holders and Tier 2 migrants will need to provide specified documents to confirm that they are being paid at or above the appropriate rate for their job. This is in addition to the employer's confirmation.

From 31 October, any settlement application by a Tier 2 migrant or a work permit holder must include:

a payslip and a personal bank or building society statement;

or a payslip and a building society pass book.


If they do not provide this evidence, their application may be refused.
