Bureaucracies always run about five years behind events. When I came here I got points for children (almost enough to get in on that alone,) points for some money to start a business (not that much,) and points for my cabinet making City and Guilds, (lots of points.) Of course when I actually got here I found the place was awash with German and Swiss Cabinet Makers, really, really good ones, in a completely different league to me, all wandering around looking for jobs. Apparently the policy had been running for a few years and I was the latecomer!
Permanent Residency or Immigration is usually about you ability to fit the current policy. Otherwise it is pretty well impossible.
