• Sponsor licence compliance changes introduced in April 2026

  • The new Temporary Shortage List (TSL) for 2027/2028: What the Migration Advisory Committee has recommended and the impact for those currently sponsored in a TSL role

  • Increased English language requirements for settlement applications from March 2027

  • Recent budget announcements including increases to Skilled Worker minimum salary thresholds and new entrant salary rates from April 2027
