Should I put in my application before April 30 deadline

Wondering whether I should be rushing through and putting in my application before April 30 (supposedly the date until which TN is processing applications)

Read this on a linkedin post and some chatter about it getting more competitive.

β€œOn April 9th, 2025 Changes references to β€˜Tech Nation’ have been proactively π—Ώπ—²π—Ίπ—Όπ˜ƒπ—²π—± from the relevant parts of the Immigration Rules. This tidies things up if a change occurs, but π—±π—Όπ—²π˜€π—»β€™π˜ necessarily alter the current application flow dramatically (yet).”

Any advice or opinions are much appreciated.

Sounds unrealistic that the process would change rapidly. You can consider emailing them about it.

This article explains what the transfer of the endorsement body could be like.

"The transition in endorsing bodies marks a significant change for the Global Talent visa scheme. Tech Nation will continue to handle applications through 30 April 2025, assessing candidates under their established criteria. However, from 1 May 2025, responsibility will transfer to a new endorsing body, potentially bringing fresh perspectives to the assessment process.

If you’re eligible and ready, consider applying before April 30, 2025, to be assessed under the known Tech Nation criteria."

Unless you are absolutely sure, I wouldn’t risk rushing the application and leaving it to chance.
