I can't get a UK visa.

Out of curiousity I took the online assessment a minute ago to see if I would qualify for a UK work visa.  Mrs. KF and I both have university degrees, no criminal records, speak remarkably good English for foreigners, and are able to bring in excess of 3000 pounds of money with us, 3000 being the highest amount listed.  At any rate, at the close of the online assessment I was greeted with, "Sorry Brian, you do not qualify".   I am not knocking your nation, but I have to wonder what would make us good candidates to come to the UK, in the eyes of your government, for permanent residency. 

It would be interesting if a couple of you over there gave our process a shot, just to see if you qualify.

You've not noticing the foreign news have you.  You have been going about it all wrong.  You need to get over here and take part in a sham marriage!!  A church of England Vicar was arrested a couple of days ago on suspicion of deliberatly taking part in sham mariages..

It depends on what you want to do.  I don't think you would qualify as a highly skilled migrant worker.

£3,000 isn't very much if you are planning on living and you don't have a job.  It also depends on where you are from.

I suggest you try to get a job first and then get your employer to sponsor you.

I am assuming you are from the USA (given your name).
