Points-Based System

The Points-Based System (PBS) is one of the main routes for individuals seeking to work, study, or settle in the UK. Applications under this category are designed to be structured and criteria-based, but they can still be complex if forms are not completed correctly or the required evidence is missing.

 

Typical applications include Skilled Worker visas for those with UK job offers, Student visas for international study, UK Ancestry visas for those with British family links, and ECAA/Appendix ECAA extensions or settlement. We also assist with BN(O) Status Holder visas and applications for diplomatic staff, their families, and domestic workers.

 

Each of these routes comes with its own set of requirements, deadlines, and supporting documents. At DirectWay Immigration, we provide clear advice and practical support to ensure your application is prepared accurately and professionally, helping you avoid delays or refusals.
