移民政策又要变了,分为临时和永久移民

UK Government sets out proposals for breaking the link between temporary and permanent migration

09 June 2011
The UK welcomes the brightest and the best migrants coming to work in the UK but believes that net migration needs to be sustainable. The UK Government today (9 June 2011) launched a consultation on proposals to break the link between temporary employment-related migration and settlement, as well as reforms to Tier 5, and overseas domestic worker routes.
Launching the consultation, the UK Immigration Minister Damian Green set out proposals to re-classify visas as either ‘temporary’ or ‘permanent’ and introduce stricter criteria for those who want to stay.
Immigration Minister Damian Green said:
“The proposals I am making today are aimed at breaking the link between temporary and permanent migration.
“Settlement has become almost automatic for those who choose to stay. This needs to change. The immigration system has got to be made to work properly.
“We want the brightest and best workers to come to the UK, make a strong contribution to our economy while they are here, and then return home.”
The UK Government has already implemented new settlement requirements for skilled workers entering under Tiers 1 and 2 of the points-based system, which require applicants to demonstrate English-language proficiency, continue to meet the salary requirements and to pass a new criminality test.
The consultation will also look at the overseas domestic workers routes. The UK Government believes that it is not right that low-skilled workers have a route to settlement when it is looking to remove that right from more skilled workers.
Key proposals under consideration in the 12 week consultation are as follows:
Re-branding Tier 2 (the skilled worker route) as temporary, ending the assumption that settlement will be available for those who enter on this route.
Allowing certain categories of Tier 2 migrant, for example those earning over £150,000 or occupations of a specific economic or social value to the UK, to retain an automatic route to settlement.
Creating a new category into which, after three years in the UK, the most exceptional Tier 2 migrants may switch and go on to apply for settlement.
Allowing Tier 2 migrants who do not switch into a settlement route to stay for a maximum of five years with the expectation that they and any dependants will leave at the end of that time.
Introducing an English language requirement for adult dependants of Tier 2 migrants applying to switch into a route to settlement.
Restricting the maximum period of leave for Tier 5 Temporary Workers to 12 months.
Closing or reforming routes for overseas domestic workers.
Damian Green added:
“A small number of exceptional migrants will be able to stay permanently but for the majority coming to the UK to work will not lead automatically to settlement.”
The UK Government has committed to reforming all routes of entry to the UK in order to bring immigration levels under control. The settlement reforms will work alongside the annual limit, the new student visa reforms and changes to the family route planned for later this year.

The consultation will run for three months, until 9 September and we will announce our firm
plans in due course. As the Home Secretary announced in February, we intend the
settlement reforms will affect those workers who entered economic migration routes under
the Immigration Rules in force from 6 April this year and who, under the current system,
could have expected to apply for settlement in 2016. The timing of reforms to Tier 5 and
the overseas domestic worker routes will depend on the outcome of consultation, but we
would anticipate them taking effect during 2012.

是不是2011年4月6号以后申请的都没有机会申请永居了吗?

还是说2011年底前拿到Tier2签证,还是可以在2016年申请永居?我最近正准备PSW转Tier2啊。

当初就说过tory有这个打算,一个migration advisory committee,一个Cross Party Group on Balanced Migration都是给tory出谋划策的,去年2月初他们就提出过以后的新t2申请人不让settle,

The second proposal is to break the link between coming here to work and almost automatically becoming citizens. In other words, we should welcome the proposals now being considered by the Government that people can come here perhaps for four years and then return home. That would be an advantage to them and certainly to the British economy. The idea that working here should automatically lead to citizenship has led to the long-term growth in population,
这个政策和明年4月的psw的取消是配合使用的,graduate可以直接不需要cos转t2,然后还不让settle,于是得便宜的那些big business,因为他们可以有更多的便宜临时劳动力而且还不用操心cos,用完后卸磨杀驴。
T5的话,原来那些kiwi,aussie,canadian都可以随便来打两年工,现在只能1年了?
domestic worker的话,许多菲佣该不高兴了。
至于结果如何和在何种程度上影响已经t2或者即将t2的人,只能等了。

英国近亲结婚的太多了, 有一个典型的2B{:5_142:}

想通过T2拿到永居越来越难了,要150000英镑,或某些特定职业的才行

Re-branding Tier 2 (the skilled worker route) as temporary, ending the assumption that settlement will be available for those who enter on this route.

基本是不是说,现在的T2所有者,2016年还是可以申请settlement=PR
如果那个consulation通过以后,
即9月以后拿t2的人就有可能在5年之后不能拿PR了
T5和demostic worker有影响

对十年没有影响

折腾个什么劲

consultation中的以下几点比较狠:
We consider that the temporary nature of the Tier 2 route could be emphasised by restricting the right to apply for settlement. We are proposing that those Tier 2 (General) migrants who have entered the UK under the new limit – i.e. since April 2011 – should have no direct path to settlement.

There are a number of ways in which we could operate a policy to control the numbers settling in the UK. These include:
introducing a limit;
via a selective points test; or
by random allocation in a ‘lottery’.

As part of these enhanced responsibilities, we would expect employers to re-confirm their need for the migrant at the settlement application stage, or at the three year point where certain migrants will be selected to transfer into the settlement route. In the event the employer decides they no longer require a migrant worker, and the migrant is unable to transfer to an alternative employer willing to sponsor their application for settlement, the settlement application would fail. In this circumstance, the migrant would be expected to leave the UK at the end of their five years temporary residence.

consultation最后还居然问了一句
Question 35: Are you a British Citizen? ,当初student consultation的时候可没问。

we intend the settlement reforms will affect those workers who entered economic migration routes under the Immigration Rules in force from 6 April this year and who, under the current system, could have expected to apply for settlement in 2016

看来是今年4月6号以后进入T2都要人人自危了,但4月6号以后续签T2的应该没事儿。
这要是实行了,ho以后可以整天打官司玩了。。。。

丫就一傻比, 不想过了{:5_129:}

不行就闪人吧,看到这句
“We want the brightest and best workers to come to the UK, make a strong contribution to our economy while they are here, and then return home.”
觉得很不舒服。

同感, Damian Green 只能 return to HELL{:5_142:}

是呀,只交税,没福利,英镑又不值钱,5年后还得走,谁还来这里工作。

no comment

實在是…

去年11月就知道要改,开始猜想只动T2 ICT,不过没想到一锅端了。

不呆了不呆了

大家赶紧去填表,尽量为自己争取一下啊。

不知道能不能多填几次的啊?!

唉,反正现在工签也是一样难办,还是想别的办法把。。。

全世界五年工签拿永居的也只有英国一家。
美国工签就是工签,绿卡永远别想。

五年工签换永居估计要被废除了。

不过十年还是不会动。

是啊,英国人还能再无耻些么????
卸磨杀驴的事太无德! 这句话他们好意思说出口啊? 年轻的时候给你卖命,用完了就一脚踢开,都是什么人啊?
诅咒说出这句话的人生孩子没XX!
