Increase in UK Skilled Worker minimum salary from Spring 2024

Following a Home Office announcement in December 2023, the minimum salary threshold for a UK skilled worker application will rise by more than 50% from £26,200 at present to £38,700 in Spring 2024. This announcement has immediately caused a great deal of concern, not least because it is more than double the UK minimum wage. It is very likely that this change will be challenged by lawyers like ourselves in the High Court.

Health and care workers, and roles such as teachers with national pay scales, are exempt from the increased salary threshold.

In addition, the new changes include the removal of the 20% salary discount for shortage occupation roles. This is very disappointing news for many skilled workers.

We will update these pages with more information as and when it becomes available when the new rules and salary requirements take effect.

If you are concerned about this or have an immigration question, please contact us or email us. We can usually find a solution to almost any problem.

My mother application of leave to remain was granted a few days ago!Every solicitor whom I approached advised me not to waste my time as it is an impossible task!Dr Mansouri told me it is a difficult task but it is worth to try and there are points which could be highlighted in the application and will increase chances of success.So he provided a very comprehensive letter and attached to the application , and this letter was indeed the key to success.As I have said to him, his professionalism and expertise are outstanding as he made an almost impossible task possible, and I am grateful to all his help in this difficult time. I also express my gratitude to his paralegal Rosie who is always ready to help.
