    Good afternoon, Correct, the requirement to reside here in the UK prior was removed.

    Having said that, we are extremely popular amongst Commonwealth applicants, so the window to apply for yourself tends to be extremely small due to the high volume of applications.


    You can track by the link below when you are able to apply.
