Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the Health & Care Worker visa and the Skilled Worker visa?+

The Health & Care Worker visa is a subcategory of the Skilled Worker visa for eligible healthcare roles. It has reduced visa application fees and is exempt from the Immigration Health Surcharge — a significant saving for applicants.

Do I need to register with the GMC or NMC before getting a visa?+

You can receive your Certificate of Sponsorship and apply for your visa before GMC/NMC registration is complete, using a provisional registration letter. Albion advises on the correct sequencing to avoid delays.

Can my family come with me on a Health & Care Worker visa?+

Yes. Dependants (spouse and children under 18) can accompany you on the Health & Care Worker visa. Note that from January 2024, care sector workers cannot bring overseas dependants — NHS roles are not subject to this restriction.

How long is the Health & Care Worker visa valid?+

The visa is granted for the duration of your employment contract plus 14 days, up to a maximum of 5 years. You can extend from within the UK.

ConsultancyCheck verdict

Albion Immigration Advisors has carved out a well-deserved niche as the North West's leading Health & Care Worker visa specialist. For nurses, doctors, and care professionals moving to the UK, their healthcare-specific knowledge and competitive fees make them the strongest choice outside London.
