There are loads of people that changed status from student to unmarried partner. Make sure you're attending and prove that you're progressing in your course and not over working (more than 20 hours). You've got nothing to worry about if you meet the conditions and haven't breached your student visa conditions either.

Hi,

I sent a letter from my college stating that my attendance is over 80% and im a regular student currently studying for a Level 6 course. Also I work only 20 hrs and sent the salary slips as well.

I just asked this question because home office might check everything since a student trying to change his status to another category so he can stay in this country and get more benefits than a student.(since these days they trying to restricting the students and strict rules)


Thanks for the reply.

No worries, your situation seems normal and good on you for getting a letter from your college. Let us know when you get your approval .

Yes you still need to do biometrics. Be patient. The waiting times are quite long for post applications flr(m).
