In December 2018, the Government set out its proposals in \u201cThe UK\u2019s future Skills-based Immigration System\u201d White Paper. The White Paper proposals include a new route for skilled workers which will be open to anyone at RQF level 3 and above, irrespective of where they are applying from. This route will not be capped, allowing all of those who meet our requirements to come to the UK.<\/p>
The White Paper also includes a transitional route for temporary workers which will be open to anyone from qualifying countries, wishing to fill positions at any skill level, for up to 12 months. We do not intend to impose a cap on the number of people wishing to use the route.<\/p>
The Government is undertaking an extensive programme of engagement with a wide range of stakeholders across the UK, throughout 2019, including with the private, public and voluntary sectors and local government, as well as industry representatives and individual businesses, before taking final policy decisions on the future system.<\/p>"}
