Care Workers Who Broke Visa Rules Get Second Chance at UK Settlement

Around a quarter of migrant care workers who arrived between 2022 and 2025 without meeting their visa conditions will get a second chance, Shabana Mahmood told MPs. They can apply for another five-year care visa, no longer tied to their old employer, letting them escape rogue sponsors. The government will also help them find legitimate care jobs, and they can apply for settlement again afterwards.
