    What about family members?

    There is no "unskilled" route, but students and dependant family members will be able to come to the UK.

    Spouses, partners and children under 18 will count as dependants, as can other family members in some cases.

    They can then go on to work in the UK in many cases without meeting the salary test.

        It's probably time to wake up and think how to make money out of it as most of IT will no longer be considered skilled work.

        What paperwork one needs to import these workers and resell their services?

          From my employers perspective, zero. InfoSys are based inhouse, we send and email and someone from India arrives (pre covid) about a week later and stays of 6 months before being swapped out with a replacement. Easier than ordering a pizza.
