Repeal changes to immigration visa & settlement requirements announced 1/07/2025

Closed 1,632 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to cancel all changes to the immigration and visa policy as set out on 01/07/25, effective 22/07/25. The new rules cut many eligible job roles, raised the salary threshold, and require that sponsored jobs have a university degree.
We think the changes will make it unnecessarily difficult for hard working people on visas who contribute positively to UK society.
