How does the Points-Based Immigration System apply to the Skilled Worker visa?

The Points-Based Immigration System for the UK’s Skilled Worker visa requires applicants to score at least 70 points. Points are awarded based on criteria such as having a job offer from an approved sponsor (20 points), a job at the appropriate skill level (20 points), and English language proficiency (10 points). Additional points can be earned through factors like a higher salary, a job in a shortage occupation, or holding a relevant PhD.
