United Kingdom Work Permit Application

Work permits are issued by Work Permits (UK), part of the Home Office's The UK Border Agency. A work permit relates to a specific person and a specific job. The work permit scheme lets UK employers recruit or transfer people from outside the European Economic Area (EEA), while still protecting the interests of resident workers in the UK. Work permits also allow overseas nationals to come to the UK for training or work experience.

There are six types of work permits:

1. Business and Commercial
2. Sportspeople and entertainers
3. GATS (Global Agreement on Trade in Services)
4. Sectors Based Scheme (SBS)
5. Training and Work Experience SCheme (TWES)
6. Multiple-entry work permits (MEWPs)

STEP 2:

Visa Application / Biometric Fingerprinting

Please read the following instructions carefully before completing the visa application:

• *The Consulate of the United Kingdom DOES NOT accept applications completed by hand. All UK visa applications must be submitted and PAID FOR electronically.
• *You will be asked what state you are located in. Please choose "ILLINOIS", as we will be processing your application through the Chicago Consulate.
• *Should you choose LA or NY we will need to send your applciation to that Consulate and this will delay your visa processing. An additional fee is charged for this service.
• *Upon completing the visa application and submitting payment, please print out the resulting application. If done correctly, a number starting with letters "GWF..." will be present in the upper-left corner, and below that a note that payment has been made. If those things are not present, then you are printing the wrong page. The printed application MUST be signed in the appropriate section at its end. Each traveler MUST have a completed application regardless if, for example, a minor shares the same passport with you.
• *The link below will open a new window and allow you to select the type of visa you require. After you completed the visa application please close the UK website window and return to our website to continue with your order.
