The Tier 5 visa has 2 broad categories: Tier 5 (Temporary worker), which has several sub-categories and Tier 5 (Youth mobility scheme)
The sub-categories in Tier 5 (Temporary worker) visa are:
Each of the Tier 5 (Temporary worker) sub-category, as well as the Tier 5 (Youth Mobility scheme) category has distinct requirements that one must meet in order to be granted leave to remain under Tier 5.
Tier 5 (Temporary Worker) visa category is part of the points based system. As such, one of the main requirements is to score sufficient points. The available points are:
Valid Certificate of Sponsorship: 30 points
Maintenance requirement: 10 points
As you can see, to qualify under Tier 5 (Temporary worker) visa route, you must have a UK based Sponsor, who has a Tier 5 Sponsor Licence and is able to issue you with a Tier 5 Certificate of Sponsorship.
For maintenance requirements, you will need to supply proof of having at least £1270 of personal savings that you have held for a 90 day minimum period or rely on your A- rated Sponsor to supply you with an undertaking in respect of maintenance.
Simply meeting the points requirement is not sufficient to succeed under this route. Other requirements you must meet include:
Apart from these general requirements, each Tier 5 (Temporary worker) visa sub-category has its own requirements. You should always consult with a specialist Tier 5 visa solicitors if you intend to come to the UK under any of the Tier 5 (Temporary worker) sub-categories, as each matter should be assessed against the specifics of the relevant sub-category.
As a Tier 5 applicant you would need to meet the following requirements:
You will meet the nationality requirement if you are national of:
Your age should be between 18 to 30.
And you can meet the maintenance requirement by showing personal savings of £2530
Further requirements are:
Even if all the requirements are met, you still might be refused a visa if annual allocations for this visa for the country of your nationality has been filled. In this case, you will not be awarded the points for nationality and your visa will not succeed.
The length you can stay in the UK on this visa will depend on what subcategory of Tier 5 visa you have.

Excellent service for my wife’s spousal visa from Lusine: very detailed advice, friendly and approachable. Also flexible in contact by email and provided an excellent cover letter.
I highly recommend Dr. Lusine Navasardyan, as she is professional, intelligent, hard worker and cheerful, she helped us from the beginning of our case until the very end, when she prepared a strong bundle with over 385 pages, which helped us get a successful victory in our Asylum case . I strongly recommend her as I really appreciate all the professional work that she has done . Many thanks to her.
Dr. Lusine has been working on my case. She has been very professional and a reliable person. She was always attending to my queries and she has always been very friendly throughout my case.
I am very happy with the level and quality of service I got from Dr. Lusine Navasardyan. She is very professional while creating a friendly and comforting relationship with her clients. The service from Lusine was professional,efficient and well organised. Lusine worked extremely hard at resolving my all issues while getting the best result.
So Rakhi Singal of RVS has just handled my divorce, it was a very complex case and I came to Rakhi at the very last minute on a friend’s recommendation. My case was a mess and I stood to lose everything.
Dealing with Rakhi was more like having In-House counsel than hiring a law firm, she does not approach her clients as a cash machine like many law firms do, she works with you to manage and minimise your costs and de-escalate conflict rather than throw wood on the fire.
She took a huge personal interest in my case, she was always available on the phone, very quick to respond to emails and is very honest and trustworthy.
My ex had huge spending power and used a team of high profile solicitors against me, Rakhi literally saved me from complete ruin and helped me get a very fair deal with me spending 6 times less than my ex on legal fees.
Thank you, my new family and I will be forever grateful!!!!
Could not be more pleased with the results!
I approached RVS solicitors as they were highly recommended and now I completely understand why. Soon as I contacted Rakhi I knew I wanted to use her, she was so professional and easy to get along with. I was faced with clients who were refusing the pay invoices, Rakhi immediately reassured me that she was able to help me and recoup these costs. She dealt with the whole process very professionally.
Really impressed with Rakhi’s dedication to our case and her knowledge and experience on dealing with the case. She communicated with us throughout the process, providing me with regular updates. Thank you so much, I cannot vouch for her work enough and RAW Invites are happy for you to continue to act for all their matters in the future.
