If you are a technology specialist with at least five-years experience looking to work and settle in the United Kingdom, then look no further.
Simply fasten your seatbelts and strap yourself in for the Fast Flyer Programme launched by Pacific Infotech UK Ltd.
This Tier 2 programme is designed to provide technology professionals and their families with a unique opportunity to live, work, and study in the UK.
At the end of your five-year sponsorship, you will obtain an ILR (Indefinite Leave To Remain) to stay in the country and acquire a British passport in due course.
Our sponsors have a 100% success rate in this area and we’re confident in their success.
However in an unlikely event that a visa is refused, Visa officer provides a reasons, refund and no-refund will be strictly based on these specific reasons.
You can refer to Refund & No Refund Criteria prior to your application.
Depending on your experience our partner sponsors will try to find the suitable job available or else you need to find an appropriate job and join our sponsorship programme for assured sponsorship which will continue for the period of 5 years.
When we use the term COS, we're referring to the Restricted Ceritifcate of Sponsorship (RCOS). A Tier 2 UK visa requires a valid certificate of sponsorship from an employer holding a valid sponsorship license. The perspective employer must request this license and, if granted, can offer a COS to a candidate via an online sponsor management system.
Under the Tier 2 general visa programme you will be responsible for paying the initial cost of the sponsorship, plus sponsorship arrangement charges and consultancy fees up front. The programme attracts sponsorship & consultancy fees upfront plus a monthly service cost on your payroll.
DOCUMENTS REQUIREDThe seven-step process will take around 10-12 weeks should sponsors need to place the advert and 6-8 weeks advert is not required. You can download the process flowchart which is also showing the list of required documents.
The Tier 2 General programme is typically the most suitable option for candidates with a good working experience through which they can find a suitable job in the UK, and your experience will also help our sponsors to find a job quickly for you.
The programme involves risks to a certain level; we strongly suggest you to check ‘Roles, Responsibilities & Risk’ section before applying.
The programme is usually the best option for candidates who have a wealth of experience, are married, and who plan to settle in the UK with their spouse, who will also take up work in the country.
Why?
Because your spouse is eligible to work anywhere in the UK and retain 100% of their take-home salary, you’ll be able to save a considerable amount of money over a five-year sponsorship period, making the programme a worthwhile investment.
For example...
If the pay grade is £450 per day, then your take home will be £3487 per month and the deduction will be £90 day (£1800 / Month)
