Criminal records

Post by benraisLamine » Mon Dec 04, 2023 3:41 pm

Hello,
According to the "gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa/documents-you-must-provide" website the Criminal Record is necessary if you’re applying from outside the UK and you work in:
- Education, for example teachers, education advisers and school inspectors, childminders, teaching assistants
- Healthcare, for example nurses, doctors, paramedics, managers, pharmacists, dentists and dental nurses, ophthalmic opticians
- Therapy, for example psychologists, speech and language therapists, counsellors
social services, for example social workers, managers, probation officers, welfare and housing officers

Could you please confirm if the Criminal Record is necessary for SOC code 2136 "Programmers and Software Development professionals".

I am applying with dependents.

Thank you very much

You have the list of when it's required. Your SOC code and job is not on the list.
The conclusion is that you don't need the criminal record.
Not a qualified immigration adviser. Use links and references given to gain confirmation and/or extra information.
