New ILR 10 year retrospective rule for Skilled worker is injustice

New ILR 10 year retrospective rule for Skilled worker is injustice — 9 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

Skilled workers are contributing towards NHS by paying IHS, income tax, NI. But suddenly changing their ILR route to 10 years it totally unjustified. It is inhumane. It is clearly against the british values, and never happened before. Rule has to be similar for all. It should not be discriminated.

Additional details

The new earned settlement is a discrimination to all skilled workers. While government giving 5 year route for care workers but 10 year for the skilled worker with higher threshold without any logical reason. While someone spend 4 year already in skilled worker visa now they have to wait for more 6 years. Without any justification doubling the wait time is cruel. We oppose this inhumaine rule and discriminatory judgement of Home secretary. It has to be 5 years for Skilled workers as well.
