Information about the UK Highly Skilled Migrant Programme ( HSMP UK):

The Highly Skilled Migrant Programme ( HSMP ) is the solution to the Catch 22 situation of skilled people needing a UK work permit for an employer to hire them but needing an employer to get them that work permit for the UK.

The Highly Skilled Migrant Programme is a points based system now in its second year. There are 6 areas where points can be gained and you must get a minimum of 75 points to be considered. The HSMP permit means you can come to the UK to look for work instead of needing an employer to sponsor you first.
