Hello
I am currently waiting for the reply from a rated sponsor about charity work in London.
Two questions: can I apply from the UK (if I am already here) ?
and I have only two years before 10 years rule - will these two years count towards the lawful stay visa after 10 yrs?
Thank you! |

| Someone with your status can't switch into this from inside the UK and it will 12 months rather than the two years you have mentioned. |

| If you are granted Tier 5 leave (outside the UK) you can't, later, switch into Tier 4. You will have to leave the UK to apply for leave to enter. |

Does this also apply to applying for tier 5 leave to enter after being in the UK as a visitor (student or academic)? How long will it take to apply again? |

| I don't understand your question. Furthermore, whatever you are trying to day does not seem relevant to the original question about switching inside the UK. |

yes not from the original but from the reply prior to my comment about leaving the UK to apply for tier 5. if this is inappropriate sorry about that. |

| So what, exactly, is your question? What do you want to do? |

| my question is how long should one wait to apply for a tier 5 visa after leaving the UK with a visitor visa? as one can not apply for or switch to tier 5 within the UK. i am just wondering whether one has to wait for 6 months before applying for another type of visa? |

| There is no mandatory wait time. You can apply as soon as you are ready to do so. |
