<p>In the Spring Statement, my Rt Hon Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced that PhD-level occupations will be exempt from the Tier 2 (General) visa cap. The change will not alter the salary requirements for these roles. <br> <br>Salary thresholds in Tier 2 are designed to ensure that the resident labour market is not undercut by overseas workers and that migrants are paid a salary that is fair and reflects the labour market.</p>
