Important Visa Updates
for Applicants and Alumni
Covid-19 Update
Last updated: 10th July 2020
Tech Nation is continuing to process Stage 1 endorsement applications for Global Talent Visas as normal.
- Endorsements are usually valid for up to 3 months. Advice from the Home Office is that if your endorsement from Tech Nation has expired because you have not been able to travel to the UK you may still be eligible for a visa.
- You should make your application as planned and should your endorsement expire before you can travel, the Home Office will consider all Stage 2 applications on a case by case basis.
- When determining whether to endorse an application, Tech Nation will not consider an applicant’s immigration status or ability to travel, we will assess the effectiveness of the applicant’s plans in the UK.
- Some Visa Application Centres (VACs) are resuming services where local restrictions allow. Services will reopen in phases. Please see the official link below for more information.
Tech Nation cannot advise regarding Visa Applications. Please continue to review the official UK Government guidance for further information:
