If any of y'all have questions about the process for getting a Tier-2 visa in the UK, I know waaaay more about that than I wish I did.

(I'm an American living and paying income taxes in the UK as a software engineer. It is an option.)



Genuine question, what is the link between a tier-2 visa in the UK, and the subject of the story. Thanks.


GP is implying that us Americans all want to flee our country for his just for their "perfect" healthcare system.


Why would a Brit know anything about the visa system in the UK (unless they were a solicitor)?

NHS isn’t perfect. But its cost structure is miles more navigable and we’ve found wait times better.


I was curious too and Googled it. Something about how healthcare in the UK is free, and if you are on that visa then you can get that health care.


Replying to both (am the original questioner, and thanks for the answers) I'm a brit and to be precise, the NHS is free at point of use, not free. Just to be clear.

It's also now underfunded, but it's still a system I'll literally fight for.
