About this site

Purpose of this site

The UK Skilled Worker Visa Checker is a free, independent tool that helps you see whether a job offer in the UK is likely to meet the main requirements of the Skilled Worker visa. This route is the principal way for people from outside the UK to work for a licensed sponsor, and the rules around salary and skill level are the most common stumbling blocks.

Eligibility hinges on a job from a licensed sponsor at the required skill level, paid at or above the relevant salary threshold, with enough English. This tool walks through those headline conditions so you can gauge your position before applying.

How it works

The checker runs entirely in your browser. You enter your offered salary, the role and your circumstances; it compares them against the headline Skilled Worker requirements and flags where you may fall short. Going rates by occupation, tradeable points and discounts are simplified; UK Home Office rules govern, and we update the tool as the rules change.

Independent and neutral

This is an independently operated site that builds simple tools to remove the friction from complex immigration rules. We are not affiliated with the UK Home Office, and the checker does not collect or store your answers; everything is processed locally in your browser.

Before you rely on it

The rules change often and depend on details this overview cannot fully capture, and the result here is an informational estimate, not legal advice. Please review our disclaimer and confirm with GOV.UK or a registered immigration adviser.
