What American expats need to know about UK
Visa
Skilled Worker Visa — requires employer sponsorship, min £38,700/yr salary, and 70 points on the immigration scorecard. Americans are exempt from the English language test. Global Talent Visa is an alternative for exceptional talent in tech, arts, or academia — no sponsorship needed. Settlement after 5 years (increasing to 10 years from Autumn 2026).
Cost of Living
London is 10-20% more expensive than NYC; outside London, 10-20% less than comparable US cities. Expect £1,500-2,500/mo outside London.
Key Fact
The UK is doubling the settlement qualifying period from 5 to 10 years starting Autumn 2026. If you are planning to move, getting your visa before this change takes effect is significant.
Life in UK
Sunday roasts in centuries-old pubs, trains to Paris for the weekend, and a dry wit that takes six months to decode but a lifetime to stop appreciating.
