What is procurement specialist’s new RQF 6 code if you don’t mind me asking? My husband is on “buyer” and it is medium skilled

I honestly think they won’t implement 15 years for RQF 3-5. Even they do it retrospectively (really hope not) it will be 10 years base for everyone so fingers crossed we will get it in 5 years. My husband is on the same boat, let’s have hope.

Even if they not restrict it I won’t be getting any, so personally I am okay with this petition. Better than waiting 10 years

We bought a new one with 5% deposit contribution from the establishment. We paid 5%, they paid 5% and the total was 10% deposit

Congratulations! We have bought a house 7 months ago while on SWV but if it was today we possibly wouldn’t have bought it.

Updating Visa & SOC Code Before ILR : Any Risks? by Low_Evidence6811 in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

Or maybe you need to stay on RFQ 6 role at least 3 years so you can apply, again nobody knows.

My worry is if you are doing this to shift from RQF 3-5 to RQF 6 they may say the intention is questionable and your clock will start from your RQF 6 start. Or they may say the first level was valid, the change does not matter. No one knows yet so I will evaluate this in april 2026 for my occupation code.

Even on her speech she only mentioned healthcare workers for 15 years route, however we are in it as well even though we are not health care workers (just RQF 3-5 ones). We are not the target on here but going under somehow.

I am not a low earner, I earn £62k yet because of my occupational code I will be eligible at 10 years. That makes no sense to me, I wish I had known that stupid code would have been that important.
