F.A.Q. about the service

The visa can be valid for max. 5 years. Upon its expiry, its holder can either renew it, or apply for an “Indefinite leave to remain”, if all requirements are met.

The visa can be requested from the UK only in case the applicant already holds one and wants to renew it, or if they hold a different visa that can be converted into a Skilled Worker visa.

Yes, you can. To proceed, you need to apply for an update of the visa.
