A Health and Care Worker visa allows you to bring your dependents, including your partner (spouse, civil partner, or unmarried partner that you've been living with for at least 2 years) and any children under 18 years. Each dependent requires their own visa application and must meet certain requirements.
You are allowed to study on a Health and Care Worker visa, but you may need to get an Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) certificate.
In most cases, you can switch from a skilled worker visa to another visa while in the UK if you meet the eligibility requirements and apply before your current visa expires. Some visas, like Visitor visas, are not eligible for switching. As rules may change, always seek legal advice before making the switch.
If your job ends (due to redundancy, resignation, or termination), your employer must inform the Home Office. The Home Office may curtail or shorten your visa and send you a letter with the new expiry date. You usually have a grace period to find a new job with a licensed sponsor and apply for a new Skilled Worker visa or switch to another eligible visa. If unable to find a job or switch visa, you must leave the UK by the curtailment notice date. Failure to comply can impact future returns. Note that processes and consequences vary for other work visas.
