FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does my immigration status affect my application?
Some applicants may be considered before others on the basis of
immigration status in accordance with the Immigration, Asylum and
Nationality Act 2006. If you are not a UK or EEA national but your
immigration status entitles you to work without restriction in the UK,
you will be considered on an equal basis with UK and EEA nationals.
Other non-UK or non-EEA nationals with limited leave to remain in
the UK, whose employment will require a Work Permit, are subject to
the resident labour market test. The labour market test means that you
would only be considered for a training programme if there are no
suitable UK or EEA national candidates. This is unlikely to be the
case for GP specialty training programmes.
