In this scheme United States citizens between the ages of 18-30 with sufficient funds (1600GBP) without any dependents are allowed to work in the UK for up to two years.
There has been negotiation between the two countries, but the decision has yet to be announced.
This petition is to show that there is major interest in the Youth Mobility Scheme visa being available to the youth of the USA to go to the UK. Also, by showing this interest my hope is that it will sway the United States government to approve this visa.
