More details

As per the Home Office guidelines it is mandatory that a person who is under Tier2 visa must meet certain sum of pay by the end of 5th year to obtain ILR. People who served as a critical staff during covid crisis must be exempted from this as they risked their own life and their families in order to run the BAU & helped the smooth functioning of the economy. Hence Home Office should review and grant ILR to those who doesn't meet the salary requirement and served the country for their good deed.
