UK cuts funding for only company processing Global Talent Visas

Awful news and it's unclear if this means the end of this visa

Thanks for the update.


The link is here for those who are interested.


Unfortunately, this is a perfect example of what I previously advised, all work-type visas, worldwide are always political items in as much as they can be offered and withdrawn at the stroke of a politician's pen.


In this case, the funding has been switched to an alternative which on paper is offering more for less and the article says that Tech Nation is investigating selling their key assets and relevant DCMS (?) staff may switch to Barclays Eagle Labs as part of a redundancy scheme.


I hope this helps.
