Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is set to reveal changes to the indefinite leave to remain rules. The new rules will regard care workers similarly to doctors and could see some migrants wait up to 10 years for the right to settle in the UK. Skilled migrants are expected to contribute £115bn to the UK economy under current rules. The announcement comes as part of new immigration regulations.
“The announcement comes as part of new immigration regulations,” — Ingrid Thorne, policy watcher at Heaburn Combe Analytics, added during the briefing.
