Why this applies to you: Your permission carries work conditions, and working outside them can affect future applications.

Why this next?

Applying for work you are not permitted to do wastes time and can put your status at risk. Employers ask for a share code at offer stage.

What it unlocks: Job applications, employer checks and any self-employed activity.

How to do it

  1. Read the work conditions attached to your visa.
  2. Generate a right to work share code.
  3. Note any hour limits or restrictions on self-employment.
