Points-Based System (PBS)
The UK government announced new changes in the immigration system, known as the points-based system. The UK points-based system has been effective since January 2021 and is one of the significant immigration pathways to the UK. Candidates interested in migrating to the UK for study, investment, or work are segregated into five tiers, each with different eligibility criteria. Individuals looking to migrate must clear the points-based assessment and fulfill the requirements.

*Disclaimer:
A quick eligibility check of Y-Axis is only to help the candidate understand how to get their scores. The points displayed are entirely based on your answers. Please note the points in each section are evaluated based on various parameters set in the immigration guidelines, and a technical evaluation is a must to know your accurate scores and eligibility. This helps you to find out which immigration program you can apply for. A quick eligibility check does not guarantee you the points below; you may score high or low points once our expert team technically evaluates you. Many assessing bodies process skills assessment, which will depend on your nominated occupation, and the assessing bodies will have their own criteria for considering a candidate as skilled. State/ territory authorities will also have criteria to allow sponsorships, which a candidate should satisfy. So, a candidate needs to apply for a technical evaluation.
