The government published its immigration white paper on Monday which aims to reduce the number of people arriving in the UK “significantly” by introducing restriction across all forms of visas.

Changes include skilled work visa applicants requiring degree-level qualifications rather than those that are roughly equivalent to A-levels. Social care visas specifically will be affected as the government promises to end all overseas recruitment for social care work – though there will be a “transition period” until 2028.
