Skilled Worker visa

01.08.2025 12:10:36 Yes, dependants of a Skilled Worker visa holder can work in the UK. Dependants typically include the spouse or partner and children under 18 of the Skilled Worker visa holder. They are granted a Dependant Visa, which allows them to live and work in the UK. Here are some key rights and conditions for dependants: 1. **Right to Work**: Dependants have the right to work in most jobs in the UK. However, they cannot work as a professional sportsperson or sports coach. 2. **Study**: Dependants can also study in the UK without any restrictions on courses or institutions. 3. **Duration of Stay**: The duration of their stay is usually linked to that of the main visa holder's stay. If the Skilled Worker visa holder extends their visa, dependants can apply to extend theirs as well. 4. **Access to Public Funds**: Generally, dependants do not have access to public funds, similar to the main visa holder. 5. **Healthcare**: They are required to pay an Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) as part of their visa application, which allows them access to NHS services. 6. **Pathway to Settlement**: Dependants may be eligible for indefinite leave to remain (ILR) after five years if they meet certain residency requirements alongside the main applicant. It's important for dependants and primary applicants alike to comply with all visa conditions and keep abreast of any changes in immigration rules that might affect their status or rights within the UK.

04.08.2025 16:24:02 Dependants of a Skilled Worker visa holder—spouse, civil partner, or children under 18—can live and work in the UK during the main applicant’s visa validity. They are allowed to work full-time, including in most roles, and can also study without restrictions. However, they cannot work as professional athletes or sports coaches. Children can attend schools like UK residents. Dependants’ visas are usually granted for the same duration as the main Skilled Worker visa. To apply, they must provide proof of relationship (marriage/birth certificates), financial maintenance evidence, and a copy of the main visa holder’s sponsorship. An immigration lawyer can prepare the application package, verify documents, and minimize the risk of delays or refusals by ensuring full compliance with UK immigration requirements.
