Is it beneficial to work in the UK after BREXIT??

[ghing0293]

Hi, I'm Ghing, 22, working as a staff nurse in Dubai, UAE for 2 years now. Since I am seeking greener pastures in other countries, I tried applying for several nursing jobs in the UK. Luckily, one agency noticed my CV and was referred to a hospital in Norwich, Norfolk, UK. I did a skype interview with the hospital staff and to my surprise, I was chosen!

Now, they sent me the conditional job offer and since I don't have an NMC registration as of now, I belong to the category of Pre-Registered Nurse in a Band 4 Salary and will be promoted to Band 5 once I'm registered to the NMC.

Now, after reading news, forums and articles about nursing life in the UK, it is mentioned that there are new rules regarding nurses. Is it true that after 5-6 years working in the UK and your salary will not reach £35,000 then you are no longer allowed to stay in the UK? I've been wanting to reside in UK for a long time until I am eligible to apply for citizenship but given the circumstance, I might not be able to achieve it.

Also, does the BREXIT affect the status of overseas nurses in the UK ? Will it be a threat to the comfortable life that they are dreaming of?

Please enlighten me as I need to respond to my job offer. Should I accept it or not?

Nobody knows what will happen after the Brexit.

Not to discourage you, but I humbly suggest to do some research about life in the UK as a nurse.

Moved to International Nursing

Suggest you read up on Tier 2 visa on the UK Borders website. According to the website there is a criteria and I think tier 2 has a limit on either 5 or 6 years and then you have to leave. This was in place before Briexit

I think there will be 2 year transition period after brexit. I read an article on the internet that in the next year or two there should be no impact on nurses as they are still desperately needed by the nhs and it will take a long time to negotiate and implement the UK's withdrawal from the EU. Im keeping my hopes up:-)
