my brother has been told by a manger of a care home that she can get her a working visa do anyone know if this is possible to get a visa from the Philippines to the uk as a carer i do not think she has any uni or collage regarding being a carer , but could she if she had the degree and can she get a visa if no experience
I found this in a google search: https://www.totaljobs.com/job/care-assistant/prestige-nursing-job99942427 In that link is "Applicants must have proof of right to work in the UK" I would think that this stipulation is throughout the UK.
https://www.davidsonmorris.com/recruiting-social-care-workers-from-overseas/ Think will depend on employer in terms of willingness to sponsor visa. Was introduced as temporary measure and not sure if has recently been extended as was due to expire. Do need to be careful to ensure any offers are legit and avoid exploitation. The better the offer the more need to be cautious.
He is correct the link below will help you,key area is sponsorship https://www.gov.uk/health-care-worker-visa/apply-from-outside-the-uk
From your original Post stating no qualifications in H&SC and reading a bit from the link Posted by @Mattecube from here - https://www.gov.uk/health-care-worker-visa - it seems unlikely, but 'nothing ventured, nothing gained' so what have they got to lose by checking out the possibility? As others have already said, just be careful of unscrupulous 'employers' making promises of employment they can't keep! EDIT: Looking a little deeper at the links provided, under 'Occupation code' it does include - 6145: care workers and home carers So not just 'Medical professionals' it would appear. Obviously, there may still be minimum requirements, including salary?
I should of copied this link earlier, apologies! Interested parties need to read right through https://smithstonewalters.com/2022/...ers-to-be-eligible-for-uk-visa-from-february/
Your right from the link the occupation code is the test to come up with requirements best link there is for researching personal circumstances
My wife knows of 4 filipino who have recently arrived with sponsored work visas to train and work in a special needs care home for 3 years. They all have degrees in the philippines..that was the only requirement.
True but sponsoring companies get to set additional requirements over and above government minimum. That company may still want the degree so can make it a requirement and gets a higher educated applicant. Whether that means get a better employee is a matter for debate.
True, but the sponsoring company would not interview or recruit somebody who does not fit their requirements nor should the applicant apply as in all walks of life, and there lies the benefit of the first link I posted, as in all walks of life, the point that is relevant to the ops question being that the scope has broadened to more levels of academic and financial standing.
