Dear Visitor
As the summer draws to a close and governments around the World return from their holidays, immigration workers gear up for what promises to be a busy rest of the year. Despite the holiday period, various new announcements have been made by the UK Home Office concerning the controversial English language regulations for naturalisation applications, and the USCIS has kept busy as well. This edition of workpermit.com News covers the new English requirements in detail, various new USCIS regulations, and looks at the influx of workers into Ireland. Please visit the links below to read more on these developments in global immigration law! We hope that you find this edition of workpermit.com News interesting and informative, and the workpermit.com staff hope that you have all had a relaxing summer!
Please also take a moment this month to visit our new and improved Employment Centre for both job seekers and employers!
