The organization Tech Nation, which is authorized to screen applicants for the British Global Talent visa, has announced that it will close from 31 March 2023. This was reported on the Tech Nation website.
Experts interviewed by RB.RU believe this may affect the business of companies that help make UK visas.
The reasons for this decision are the withdrawal by the Department of Digital Technologies, Culture, Media and Sports (DCMS) of a grant to finance the company. It has been provided by Tech Nation for approximately 10 consecutive years. “Without this funding, Tech Nation is not viable on its own,” the organization said in a statement.
One of Tech Nation’s activities was the joint implementation of the Global Talent Visa program with the UK Home Office. According to him, applicants with experience in digital technologies could be awarded a UK talent visa.
Following the company’s announcement, the ministry said it is working with Tech Nation to roll out the program in the short term (until March 31, 2023) and is exploring steps to bring the digital portion of the Global Talent Visa program to life in the long term. term. , according to TechMonitor.
“The closure of Tech Nation could affect the business of companies that help obtain UK visas in both the medium and long term. Most likely, the authority to evaluate the applications of candidates for visas with experience in the field of digital technologies will be given to another company with the appropriate experience, a conclusion about this can be drawn from the press release of the Ministry of Internal Affairs . Kirill Stus, a specialist at the Intercessia law firm, told RB.RU.
According to Stus, two questions remain unresolved: when will a new chartered organization be chosen and who will it be. “The question arises as to whether companies that help make UK visas under the Global Talent Visa program will be able to build partnerships with an authorized person or not,” the expert added.
Various types of visas for the UK help entrepreneurs to do, in particular, Immigram, Go for Travel, London Visa.
