The third type of Point Based System UK, Tier 3 was designed to replace schemes such as the current Seasonal Agricultural Workers Scheme (SAWS) and the Sectors Based Scheme (SBS). However, the UK government has stated that Tier 3 will be suspended from implementation for an indefinite period of time.
Please note that the tier 3 visa category is currently suspended and no information is available as to when or if it will be implemented.
The United Kingdom feels that it can source employees from within the European Union to meet the labour demands of employers that hire unskilled, seasonal labour. The government has recently started earmarking programs such as SAWS and SBS for nationals of Bulgaria and Romania, who have had temporary labour restrictions placed on both of their nations upon their accession to the European Union in 2007.
As with the old UK work permit visa structure, a tier 3 visa application is a largely employer led process. Like work permits, sponsoring companies in the United Kingdom will be required to attempt to source labour domestically before recruiting from a wider base outside the EU. These UK visas for immigration will be based upon the creation of low skilled working schemes on an ad hoc basis when a shortage is identified which cannot be dealt with by the domestic workforce. The responsibility for identifying such shortages will lie with the Skills Advisory Body (SAB) and is intended to cater for the fluctuating need for low skilled workers throughout the year.
As with tier 2 visas, tier 4 visas and tier 5 visas, entry to the UK under a tier 3 visa will require a certificate of sponsorship as part of the application. For tier 3 visas the sponsor will be the operator of a particular low skilled worker scheme and the certificate will serve as confirmation that the applicants who are immigrating to the UK will be bound by the terms of the route.
Unlike a Tier 1 visa or a Tier 2 visa, applications at the tier 3 level do not constitute a route to settlement and will not provide you with an opportunity to apply for permanent residence in the UK.
