Home Office written question – answered at on 11 January 2023.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of permitting Tier 2 ICT visa holders, who had switched to a Skilled Worker visa, to be allowed to use their time spent on a Tier 2 ICT visas as a route to settlement in the UK.
It is Home Office policy that entry and stay under routes designed to accommodate intra-company transfers is temporary and should not lead to settlement. Consequently, leave granted to ICTs does not count towards settlement if the holder switches into another economic migration route. The ICT routes facilitate mobility of key staff in accordance with our trade commitments and are not intended to give access to the UK labour market long term.
