The UK Border Agency has made a number of changes to the points-based system following concerns raised from customers.
The changes include:
- Introducing new rules that deliver a more responsive and straightforward system for bringing researchers and academic visitors to the UK
- Outlining their plans to develop their IT system, making it easier for customers and sponsors to use the system
- A dedicated mailbox for urgent incidents for University Vic-Chancellors and Academic Registrars. These are for incidents requiring immediate attention, with a guaranteed response within 72 hours.
