1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of British immigration methods?

At present, there are still many ways to immigrate to Britain, which are suitable for different types of applicants. Of course, different immigration methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. The specific contents include:

1) Work visa to permanent residence

It mainly includes Tier2 and Tier4 work visas. It should be noted that there are many types of visas in Britain at present, and not all of them can be converted to permanent residence. Some visas are temporary and cannot be renewed after expiration, so they must leave the country. It is easier to change a work visa into a permanent residence, generally as long as it meets the requirements. However, it is difficult to get a work visa in Britain at present, and it is not easy for many international students to find jobs after graduation. Generally speaking, it's easier for companies to go abroad, move their work places, or belong to some special industries, such as religious people, sports-related people and charity workers. In addition, some occupations also require candidates to have academic qualifications, IELTS scores and annual income.

2) Investment immigration

Investment immigration is the most suitable way for high net worth people. Although the immigration conditions are simple, the requirements are very high. Applicants need to invest not less than 2 million pounds. Although the relevant investment can be recovered after maturity, there are only a few people who meet the requirements for such a large amount of funds. Moreover, applicants must have invested for five years before they can obtain permanent residence status. Of course, if you increase investment, you can shorten the period of permanent residence.

3) Entrepreneurial immigrants

Entrepreneurial immigrants don't require much money from applicants, generally only need 50,000 pounds. Although the investment requirement is low, it must be supported by the designated endorsement agency, and language education must meet the requirements. The most difficult thing is that the business must meet two-seventh of the requirements for permanent residence, otherwise it will not become permanent residence, and then immigration will lose its meaning.

4) Marriage migration

Although marriage immigration seems simple, in recent years, fraud problems have emerged one after another, so the relevant trials are very strict. There must be a real marriage relationship, and if the judges have reasonable doubts, it is difficult to get approval.

Generally speaking, it is quite difficult to immigrate to Britain, which is not suitable for ordinary applicants. However, for those with high net worth, or those with rich business experience, or comprehensive talents with high quality, there are still suitable ways to immigrate to Britain.
