Global Talent: Academic/Researcher Route | Publications | Personal Statements😊

This video is an answer to questions posed earlier by one of our subscribers.
The questions were as follows:
1.How many publications does one need to apply for the researcher route of the Global Talent Visa?
2. What is the justification for applying for the Global Talent Visa.
The video also covers the structure that can be adopted in writing the personal statement for the Global Talent Application and why one should use this route to immigrate to the UK.
Please watch, like and subscribe, thank you ☺️

The video is finally out.. thanks so much. Must I have PhD to apply for this academic/research route

[@BilingualAfricanFolktales]

Not necessarily but a you need to demonstrate that you can conduct quality independent research. A PhD is one of the ways you can show this evidence. Then add publications and winning grants. All these help measure the impact you are making in academia. All the best and thanks for watching

I’m a new researcher with masters degree, pls can I apply for this route?

[@BilingualAfricanFolktales]

Thank you for watching ☺️. You could if you have been named on a prestigious grant (exceptional promise) and or have contributed significantly to the academic field in which you wish to be considered for. Most people would have had a PhD as the starting point ( assuming you are applying as promising talent) But a Masters or a PhD alone is not enough. Because, the key is making a confident argument of your contribution to the area in which you want to apply.

Hello Dr
I am already a researcher and academic in the Uk university. Can I switch from my skilled worker visa to the global talent visa? Please if it is, is the support letter from the university sufficient enough??
Thank you

[@BilingualAfricanFolktales]

If you’ve been on the tier 2 work visa for 3 years, then switching to the global talent visa will let you qualify immediately to apply for ILR. We have 3 videos on our channel which explains this further and also tells you the documents you will need. Please watch the ‘immigration to the united kingdom playlist’ on our channel. Thanks for watching ☺️

@@BilingualAfricanFolktales please I’ve been on the tier 2 for only 2 months.😀

[@BilingualAfricanFolktales]

@@frankatoghansah730 interesting 😀. You can still switch and apply for the GT. How would you make a case for the money already spent getting the tier 2 visa though? 🤔

[@frankatoghansah730]

@@BilingualAfricanFolktales hhmmmnnn. That is my worry now. For the ihs fee I paid for tier 2, can they transfer to the global talent visa? I don’t know if possible. 😀

[@BilingualAfricanFolktales]

@@frankatoghansah730 maybe seek advise from an immigration lawyer but I don’t think they would given that Tier 2 work visa is separate from the Global Talent 😊. If you are able to then apply for the GT after 3 years of being on the Tier 2.
